Nomada bee

GOLDENORFE

A few shots taken quickly, he was resting after feeding. tricky back lighting lit up leaf hairs nicely though. only got 14 frames before he flew.
hope you like.

I agree with teamracephotos, I had dinner in the oven once and had an hour to kill, went outside for some bug hunting, came in to burnt dinner...lol! Wonderful shots, I love all that pollen:D
