A new bee…every day

Beeneck in the Lavender

Got some fun shots yesterday. The lavender is in full bloom here now. Such a Catch-22 with the light, though. In the shade, it’s too dark to shoot fast enough…and in the sun…well, the shadows.

But it’s incredibly neat to count 30 or so bees active on a single plant. Here’s one. And that beeneck. Love it!
