I watched this portly bee bumbling from flower to flower before making a safe landing.

Very fine close-up shot of this bumble bee. Any time you can see the membrane on the wings, you known you've got a good one. Nicely composed with plenty of his smorgasbord shown.

He is a large fellow isn't he? Excellent work Tom - great details and spot-on color in the rhododendron.

Good closeup. I can imagine how hard it is to fly around being so large.
