One very Content Bumblebee
When go you outside the border of things and do things a little bit daring, Nature sometimes has the most wonderful suprises. Like when I stuck my head inside a Prikley Pear Blossum, this one very content Bumblebee had it all to himselve. I love Macro you get to see more of what you normally would not normally see with the naked eye. If you look closely you can see all the Bumblebees apendages and the pollen on him. He was so content he was blissfully unaware I was there with my camera, but I was not going to push my luck, took my photo and left him too his business.
