One of many attempts to capture a bee on our Rhododendron bush, they came in many forms with varying amounts of pollen sprinkled on them. If the neighbours didn't already, then they certainly think so now, that i am a bit batty!! having spent so much time in what seems to be stalking a rhododendron.

Beautiful picture, for the purposes of this challenge however, I would have liked to have seen a closer view of the pollin on the bee.

a bit busy, a tighter crop would have been nice, albeit hazardous to your health :)
