TEASEL and Bee -5-

a sloppy eater

Great shot.

I have just been told that this is NOT a Thistle, but beolongs to the family of "Dipsacus Silvestris" in English called a "TEASEL"...so there, now we are all a lot smarter....Bert

the detail in this photo is AMAZING

even though I dont like BUG shots! :)

Estupendo macro, con un magnifico detalle y colores. Un saludo.

excuuuuuuse me! This ain't no bug shot...this is a bee..from which you get honey, honey, you can see how hard he labours...pollen all over his body...

...Bert

Io non parlo Espaniol..so I have to say "gracias" for your kind "commentari" in Anglese....Bert

Sorry Bert but I am sweet enough,I dont need that BUG to make me honey,HONEY :) but I still like the shot!

..no honey for you, honey. I am glad you still like the shot...thanks...Bert

Bug shots are hard to make original, I think.. and man.. this is original. I hate bugs, lol... but this guy... almost looks cute. The details are outstanding, love the composition.

Very good shot. Congrats.

Nice Bert; Yes, I believe this is the national flower of Scotland but don't quote me.

Actually, I believe the National Flower of Scottland is the Thistle...and this, as I discovered later is not a Thistle, but a TEASEL..(Dipsacus Silvestris)

Thanks for looking...Bert

...this must be a good photo...even the 3/3 rater gave me a 4/4...what do you say to that???...Bert
