Wattle BEE ‘L’ BEE!
(Click on the image for a PICTURE SHOW)
Last Saturday, was glorious and sunny. It almost felt like spring. And it was looking that way too. Lots of flowers starting to bloom, and swarms of bees buzzing ’round.
Anyhow, after leaving the neighbours’ place, where I took heaps of Lavender Bee pics, I continued my walk. I was after photos to share on the 07/07/07 Flickr group. Well, I only got about half a block and spotted this huge wattle tree in full bloom. It had a few bees buzzing around in the fluffy yellow blossoms.
Bees in wattle are not easy to capture. They love to hide among the flowers, and the wattle trees are pretty dense creating a lot of shade, so the light is not real good unless you can capture the bees on the outside blossoms in the sun.
Consequently, my success rate wasn’t as high in the wattle as it was with the lavender and dandelions. But I’m pleased with what I ended up with. I do hope you like them.
Oh, and BTW, the wattle is one of my favourite flowers.

Thanks Dave!!
But I did work out how to do the slide show. But I deleted it because it was too big for the page… need to do a smaller one.
It’ll work here if I want to.
