The representative bee

The bees weren’t posing that day at the monastery, and this was really the only picture Tim got of them. I prefer to keep my distance ;-).

*****

We went back to the Franciscan Monastery in NE Washington because last year there had been lots of butterflies in their garden, and quite frankly, because we couldn’t go anywhere else due to street closures everywhere for protests and other major gardens still being closed on account of the pandemic.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Sitting atop St. Francis, posted earlier:

Looks like lots of work ahead for this bumblebee.

Always nice when they stay still enough for a shot! Especially on a pretty flower.
