Great shot Nira many bees here are endangered due to pesticide overuse so we see it as a real treat and sign of health if we have them in our garden, he looks like a honey be to me( guessing) we sometimes get the lone bumble bees which live alone in our garden, to help them deal with loss of habitat we put out little bee homes! Your bee is a fantastic picture.

Nira! Greetings! Smart Bee found his Honey Tree! just talkin about U! the one that landed on your nose, I mean! LOL! this is such a beautiful shot! Everything about it is lovely. I spent an hour last summer trying to get a shot like this on a hot day to no avail! I know how it can Bee! I love these insects they r practically my favorites. Yes, don't panic if they find u attractive, just leave them Bee n they will not sting U. It is the people that wave their arms n hands in a fit that scare them. Ty u for everything. Love CB

Artist Reply: Thank you all of you ,for all the wonderful words. CHRISTINE,U R So insightful...i'm amazed...because I was born to a family name Dabush,which means Honey...!!! i knew that...as I also know bees won't really sting me if i do nothing to them,never the less..I DO AFRAID OF BEES! :-)))

this close up is fantastic..how do you manage to get so close..

I think the fact that a insect with a stinger sat on your nose without stinging you speaks volumes about you as a person. You are a gentle and loving soul. Incredibly beautiful close-up, Nira.
