Bee on Antelope-Horns (Asclepias asperula)
One of my favorite wildflowers.
It is a member of the Milkweed Family.
I usually find them full of bugs and small butterflies.
Today I saw only bees. The photo below is a better photo
of the flower.





There is a small bug and an ant in this one!

Nikon Coolpix 4500
1/132s f/3.5 at 16.6mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Very good bee. They are really busy right now doing their thing, aren't they. You take such great macros--an ant!

I haven't seen this flower before. Amazing what a variety of forms nature has given us. Lovely!
