A bee trying to get into a rhodie bud. I think it's piercing the outer petal with its proboscis.

I missed this one! I was chasing after birds at the time. So well done. I really like the way you cropped this too. Ann

Beautiful macro, Arvin. Great color and clarity. Helen

Echoing Andy and MFC....can feel the tightness of the flower head versus the tickling probing presence of the bee. Getting feelings into these things is what it's all about. Great!! Fremiet
