Every evening I go out in to the yard in hopes of getting a photo of the flickers that take a dirt bath on our gravel road in front of the driveway. While I was sitting amongst the flowers, trying to blend in- I became distracted by the bees. I also discovered a bee thief in my garden.
This guy is covered with pollen.(click on photos to enlarge)
This little bee was so tiny I almost didn't see it.
I'm not sure what this guy was up to, but it kept stealing petals and coming back for more!
Stop thief!

Aww, I love this post! I think bees are so amazing. Thanks for sharing these photos!
ReplyDeleteI wonder why he was taking the flowers? I've never seen a bee carry anything before...Great photos, I found you on WSB. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Amanda! Nice to hear from you!
ReplyDeleteTo section331- I've been trying to find info on the internet about bees taking petals but am at a loss! I saw the bee take petals at least 3 times within a span of about 20 minutes. WSB rules!
