May 30th - Symbiosis



Walking the dog today down by the port docks, I came across some Poppies and Lavender (I think), and the whole place was abuzz with pollen gathering activity. I tried getting some shots but Chester kept wanting my attention so I went back later by myself. I shot about 140 frames and easily narrowed them down to about 20 (man those bees are busy and difficult to shoot!) I finally picked this one out of the 20. Unfortunately, there are no poppies here, but it's the best Bee photo of the lot.
