Description The 1st of 2 shots that I got of this Bumble Bee in search for an afternoon delight. The flowers that are pictured are from a common Crabapple Tree (Malus angustifolia). Along with the Dogwoods, These trees are quite beautiful this time of the year.

I am not sure which "Bee" photo I like the best, So I would love your feed back on them. Thanks for taking the time to view!

Cool shot! You know I've heard it said that from a physics aspect, bumble bees shouldn't be able to fly...I guess no one told the bumble bee!

Indeed, Thier body to wing ratio is rather unbalanced, But they dart around very well. This was actually a really tough shot. Trying to capture something that fast in about a 8 inch circle is rather difficult. Thanks again for your kind words!
