Busy as a Bee

While in the Rockland area, I caught up to a little bumblebee who was hopping flower to flower gathering pollen. It stayed maybe only one second at each flower, which made photographing it very difficult. I could never seem to predict the next flower it was going to fly to. It surprised me that it didn’t seem bothered one bit by my presence.

Out of about 15 photos taken, there was only one pic where I could see a good portion of it’s body and head (although most of it is still in the flower).

We have a few bumblebees that hang around our house every summer. I’m pretty sure they have a hideout in our crawl space. I think that they are a lot like this bee – they just want to do their thing. They’ve never bothered us, so we’ll probably let them be.
