I was beginning to wonder if the bumble bees were out this year. So far, all we’ve seen are wasps and hornets. To answer my curiosity – yes, they are.
I was in the yard taking pictures today, and noticed these pretty purple flowers. There was a large, beautiful butterfly that I was trying to capture, but he seemed to be camera shy. I noticed a few smaller moths, and tried to capture them instead, but they were shy as well. That’s when I noticed this guy. Large and in charge. He was NOT afraid of the camera. Quite the opposite in fact, I was afraid of him. :)
Situations like today make me really wish for a nice digital camera with a macro lens. Sure, I get pretty good shots with my phone…but what could I get with a awesome, actual camera?! Soon enough I suppose. Just be patient Brandi, right? I know I should just be grateful for what I have, because there are a lot of people out there who have much less than me.
So, on that note, I’m a happy girl and I can’t wait to see what other great pictures I can capture in the days to come.
