Bees! Bees! They are huge and sting-crazy! Save yourself!
Great image – I can really appreciate it after trying to photograph a ‘swarm’ of hundreds of Megachile suitors at a nest site where females were about to emerge – I got only blurry hints of bees in my still photo. But – I am happy that I was able to take a short video with my little point and shoot camera which I couldn’t have done with my SLR. http://arizonabeetlesbugsbirdsandmore.blogspot.com/2011/04/swarm-of-solitary-bees.html
