Butterflies And Bees

Funny that when I was looking at this photo I missed the bee. I love it when I find more in a photo after I take the picture. That seems to happen more often than I would expect.

The Photo Is Better Than The Sting

This is a Lemon Cuckoo Bumblebee. They are farily common here in Ohio.

I have to share a short story. We were hiking near the Stillwater River where I was filming for a video I made for Macstock. I had a backpack over my shoulder with my gear in it. I felt a need to scratch an itch. It was under the right side of my backpack. It felt like I had a thistle stuck to my shirt, so I pulled it away and tossed it into the bush. Well, it was a bumblebee, and it got me good. It was not as painful as the last time a yellowjacket got me in the wrist, but it did hurt.

The second photo includes a Goldenrod Soldier Beetle getting in a photo bomb.
