Bee in yellow environment
While on the photowalk the other day found some bees. Wish they had picked a different color flower but shot some anyway.

My bees are spending a lot of time in yellow, also(Another Conspiracy, hmmm). Nice detail for a harsh looking light.

Nice catch. Looks like you were dealing with some difficult light conditions.

Looks like the bee likes prairie coneflowers.
