This week I went bee hunting with my kids. We caught some interesting insect activities on camera and have enjoyed them immensely. I hope you enjoy them as well. (By the way, it’s a little unnerving to have a bunch of bees fly at you when you are looking at them through a telephoto lens, I had a hard time not backing up!)

Oh my goodness!
Those were all so amazing. I could almost reach out and touch those bees, they were that close and clear.

Wow. What a fantastic post you have for us today!!!
I loved every single picture. Just amazing.

I don’t think I could bring myself to get that close to bees! 😉

You have been a very buzzzzzzy bee this week! Love them but not a fan as they make me swell and send me to the ER.
Wow, you made so many, and all of them amazingly stunning awesome gorgeous pictures! They are so hard to capture well, you did well, thanks for sharing those!
Absolutely gorgeous! I love bees & butterflies! 🙂

Absolutely the best bee shot series I’ve seen this summer. And the butterfly? Wow! I’m always amazed that anyone can get such great shots of things that move around so much. Gorgeous.

Absolutely amazing pictures. The colors are great and the details so vivid.
Great photos! You might be right about that big a bee being…well…a bit much. 🙂
Wow!!! Great shots. Bees are really hard to shoot because they flit about so much.. you have made it look easy *sigh* I love the centre of the sun

Fabulous shots, Catt!
Amazing photos….like you can almost reach out and touch them!
Amazingly beautiful series this week! I LOVE them all & don’t think I could pic a fave if I had too~they’re all that good 🙂
I have yet to capture a beautiful butterfly like that but I want to badly. A butterfly & a dragonfly is on my to-do list 🙂
Those are gorgeous! I love the sunflower….errr… or is it a black eyed susan??
