ReplyDeleteTechnology is designed to frustrate us, Endah
DeleteI've never seen a bee fly, I know my eyesight is getting worse but I've seen so many photos of them on blogs this year and yet still haven't seen one myself.
ReplyDeleteThe beefly was just lucky, Jo. I didn't realise what I had taken until saw the photo.
DeleteNice photos...the best part is seeing the bees in the garden working hard!!
ReplyDeleteAnd helping provide lots of fruit, Juliet
DeleteAmazing that such little wings can fly them around.
ReplyDeleteEspecially amazing for the really large bumble bees ,tpals
DeleteThe top one is not a bee is it? It looks like a fly pretending to be a bee.
ReplyDeleteIt's a beefly, Mark
DeleteBrilliant shots - so difficult to get them to stay still long enough to take a picture.
ReplyDeleteThat's the challenge, Elaine. The last was the hardest as the bees didn't stay at each tint flower for long/
DeleteLovely shots Sue!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jo
DeleteIt's often difficult to tell the difference between bees and flies. I love watching them all flit around the garden doing their thing!
ReplyDeleteIt is Angie, I'm not sure what the third one is. Some research needed.
DeleteNot a bee then bees galore!!! It would be really bad if I was wrong wouldn't it...lol
ReplyDeleteIt certainly would, Tanya. So what kind of bees are they? :)
Deletetop picture is a hoverfly the others must be bees
ReplyDeleteI think the top on is a beefly, David. Not sure about the third one though.
DeleteLol....you have me straining at the screen here! I'd go for two and four being bees but then I'm no expert!xxx
ReplyDeleteMy neither, Snowbird.
DeleteFirst one not a bee and has a nasty bite :/ second one a bee, third not a bee, forth a bumblebee :D
ReplyDeleteOf all them my favorite is a bumblebee they do their job, don't mind you poking around and almost never sting.
My grandad used to stroke bumblebees, Leanan.
DeleteHoneybees look like wasps though don't they? I love the Bumblebee and any Bee that is obviously a Bee but if it resembles a wasp or is a wasp I freak lol.
ReplyDeleteI've heard lots of people refer to honeybees as wasps, Linda. A long as it isn't wearing yellow and black stripes you're OK. :)
DeleteBeautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteThank's Daphne
DeleteWow, the photos are great! We can see how the bees work :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you like them, Dewberry.
DeleteThose bees seem to be posing for the photo! We have a bees nest in our compost bin, but i think they're bumble not honey bees.
ReplyDeleteDoes it buzz as you pass, L?
DeleteI'm leaving the compost bin alone as it is at the back corner of the garden. Hope to reclaim it at the end of the season.
