Bees
I've never seen it so closely before. Walking down from the front gate,
I noticed a honey bee working one of the echinaceas. She was very entense. She would grab one of the pistils(?) and hug it intently and then move on, leaving behind a dot of yellow that was very visible against the green, orange, and red of the pistils. Looking closer, I saw that on the bee's hind-legs, it had like cargo pockets stuffed with this yellow stuff (pollen?) And where ever it stopped on the echinacea it left a little yellow dot. Then I noticed that the green-orange-red pistils that the bee hadn't visited, had like a little drop, like dew, on their tip. At least five minutes passed while I was lost in contemplation. Good day:-) -- Billy http://angryarab.blogspot.com/ |
