Too busy to pose

I had planned to end this gallery, but we went back to the 700-acre Kenilworth Park and Aquatic Gardens in Washington, D.C., to take another stab at photographing one of the resident herons. Along the way to the marsh we saw lots of other things, including more lotuses, water lilies and dragonflies.

The bee on the foreground flowers adds interest and I like seeing the flowers in the background of the scene.

Nice sharp shot of the bee. They don't stay in one place very long. V

Bees don't pose. They just aggravatingly flit from blossom to blossom, all the way driving you crazy!
