Still not many plants in flower, and so those that are, are well visited by bees and other insects (but mostly bees right now).

Wonderful capture of this bee Christine! How nice that the bee is on a white flower so it (the bee) can show off its beautiful markings! V

What a great closeup of this bee paying a visit. Either it's a very big bee or a very small flower! V.

Good photo. Is this guy obtaining moisture or something from the surface of the petal?
