  • A female Rufeous Hummingbird shares dinner with a bumblebee as they both hoer around a Red Hot Poker

  • was shooting macros of this wildflower in cades cove, when i got the treat of three varities of bees sharing the wildflower (think is part of the cone family, its really cool!), unfortunately this year, 2007, was a very very rough year for ALL the wildlife and nature in the smoky mountains, due to no rain, and a freak freeze around easter. the freeze killed everything that had already bloomed, so it was very odd to see species that normally dont hang out together, tolerating each other just to eat. shot this macro using a nikon diopter lens attached to a canon 75-300mm lens

  • Bee captured in mid-flight, flying with his tongue out.

  • Original painting of a calico cat watching a bumblebee

  • Olympus E-510. Zuiko 100mm. 1/400 f8. ISO 100. Auto focus wouldn’t lock on fast enough for this so I had to go manual focus. It took about 100 shots before I got it!

  • Bumblebees are social insects that are characterized by black and yellow body hairs, often in bands. However, some species have orange or red on their bodies, or may be entirely black. Another obvious (but not unique) characteristic is the soft nature of the hair (long, branched setae), called pile, that covers their entire body, making them appear and feel fuzzy. They are best distinguished from similarly large, fuzzy bees by the form of the female hind leg, which is modified to form a corbicula; a shiny concave surface that is bare, but surrounded by a fringe of hairs used to transport pollen (in similar bees, the hind leg is completely hairy, and pollen grains are wedged into the hairs for transport). Like their relatives the honey bees, bumblebees feed on nectar and gather pollen to feed their young. I will donate 100% of proceeds from the sales of this image to The Wildlife Trusts

  • This was a toothpick stuck into a pumpkin, which apparently attracts bees if you’re looking to attract bees. / Photography by Kelly Stowell, copyright 2006 / www.blackjackandcompany.com

  • These little guys are just as fast as a hummingbird and almost as large. They also look similar to bumblebees. It was a bit of a challenge to get a decent photo of one. I hope to try again soon to see if I can shoot in a little better lighting condition. This photo was taken about three miles north of Newport, which is about 30 miles north of Harrisburg.

  • Matted Print Sold – Thank you! I spent countless hours the past 2 summers trying to obtain that certain bee in flight shot. I have several images but none of them were quite what I had hoped for and envisioned. The 70-200 faster lens was used, the macro with and without flash – every shutter speed setting, DOF, you name it…I tried it! I also assumed I could not obtain a focused in flight shot using my macro, with flash, and a 1/200 ss. I believe I was wrong :o) Even with the proper settings, and prime conditions, obtaining the proper timing with these busy little bees is an art in itself! / Bugs are Beautiful / ADD RENEE TO YOUR WATCHLIST /

Conservation Information / A bumblebee (or bumble bee) is any member of the bee genus Bombus, in the family Apidae; there are over 250 known species primarily occurring in the Northern Hemisphere. / Bumblebees are social insects that are characterized by black and yellow body hairs, often in bands.

  • O suns and skies and clouds of June, / And flowers of June together, / Ye cannot rival for one hour / October’s bright blue weather; When loud the bumblebee makes haste, / Belated, thriftless vagrant, / And goldenrod is dying fast, / And lanes with grapes are fragrant….

  • 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. Photo taken bu Canon IXUS
