A new bee…every day
I think this one is a paper wasp. And I’m going to call it an honorary or passive pollinator. It sure moves from flower to flower a lot (and tracks pollen along with it).
I especially like both the shadow and the wasp’s feet distorting the surface of the water.
Fantastic(ks)!
This one I like lots because you can see the hair along the edge of her eye – as well as one of the three eyes (ocelli) on the top of her head. She’s an older one (relative term – maybe three or so weeks). You can tell because her wings are kinda chewed up and the hair on her back has mostly rubbed off. But great eye(s), tongue, face, etc. Pretty bee.
