Questions

Is she going to sting me?























Is she collecting water on her proboscis, or sticking her tongue out at me?























Is it my imagination, or does this bee have a little dent in her thorax?
















Is this a cool shot or what?!


















Is that a little pollen basket on her left back leg, filled with foxglove pollen?



















Could this possibly be the best shot of a bee I've ever taken?

(And are those little varroa mites tucked on her body just under the point of her wing?)
