The newly-emerged bees look very bright this year. Perhaps they always are and I've never noticed before.

WOW!!! Silly Mom tried to wipe the raindrops of the monitor...even after I told her they were on the pictures. That is one busy bee.

beautiful and great job on these, it is so hard for me to photograph white flowers, they seem to fade out and the details don't show.

DJan said...

Ohhh, great picture of the bee! And the raindrops! I can't wait to see your reflections picture. Soon now.

Bossy Betty said...

These are incredible!! Thank you so much!

Jane said...

It is very hard to pick a favorite this week, such beautiful shots. The first one I love as it is so crisp and clear and I love the little bud hanging down. The third shot of the bee is absolutely beautiful, you captured this perfectly. I also love the last photo with the water droplets, so pretty. Wonderful photos.

Pat said...

So nice to see flowers! I just love that first flower! What kind is it?

Kay L. Davies said...

The bee on the clover is an incredible macro. Wow! And the others are lovely, too.
We had April showers yesterday. Now the forecast is for April to go out like a lion tonight, with mixed rain and snow! In the meantime, the sky is clear and blue. Who knows?

Oh, stunning, Judy!!!! You are Queen Bee again!!! It's been a long time since I've seen any of these! I just had a swarm of them chase me to the car when I was snapping them on flowers, that has never happened before, wonder if they were partially Africanized?
