    Default Crocus and friend

    I chose the 'Flora' section for this one, as that's what I was photographing when the bee came along - Crocuses opening in the long-awaited sun!

    (First Honey Bee I've seen this year - lots of Bumble ones around though!)

    Well done Catherine, that's what's nice about photographing flowers, you never know what is going to fly or crawl into shot.

    Thanks, Folks!

    I took several pics of it buzzing around there, but that was the only one where the shadow was complete on the petal opposite.

    It does make it look rather a fearsome shape though, doesn't it? His image is a lot friendlier looking!
