I love walking around the garden to see what I can spy. Sometimes I have to race back inside to get my Macro lens – not everything can be caught on my long lens. These two were working on opposite sides of the same flower – a lavender.
Blue banded bee

This bee is interesting to watch. It apparently lives alone. I’ve gotten to know its buzz now from other bees. I wonder if the motor on my autofocus alerts it to my presence or whether its big eyes just takes everything in, even when it’s flitting from flower to flower. Note the pollen on its back leg.
