A Flowery Feast

Southern Vancouver Island

I'm not quite sure if this is a hoverfly or a bee (and I seem to get it wrong every time I try to identify one), but which ever it is, it certainly was hungry and flew from blossom to blossom gorging on the nectar!

Love the color contrast and how intense the bee is.

Fantastic...think I'd go for bee as possible subject :) A great capture, Racine
