This is the same bumblebee as in Let me out....

I think it's a beautiful creature... the colours and pattern... and those tiny, shiny wings. :)

Don't let your mind wander. It's much too small to be out on it's own.

congrats on the wildlife photo,

:iconstacyc:
Fantastic!!! I have been trying to get a picture of one of these bees for almost a month. They refuse to land and stay still. This is beautiful!
:iconlejonlurv:
Thanks! :) Wildlife indoors... pretty great ;) Well.. he would have looked even more beautiful with some nice green leaves under him.. instead of my dusty windowsill... *lol*

Hey, I just saw Supersize me... Horrible! I won't eat there again...

oh thank you!!! :) and thanks for the :+fav:'s! I feel very lucky, this little fellow sat quite still for me... Even when I pulled my camera quite near him, he didn't seem to notice or mind. :)
Good luck, I hope you'll find a kind bumblebee soon! A tip... if you have some near you, put honey (or other kinds of sweetness) somewhere you can get a nice shot of it... They :heart: honey! :) I remember once on a trip in the forest, I became "friends" with a bumblebee by smearing honey on a nearby tree... it ate and ate... and eventually hardly could fly... *lol*

lol Thanks for the tip, I'll try it. (I wonder if that works with wasps too?) I think they're so fuzzy and cute. You definatly did this one justice!
:iconcammis:
:aww: så søøøt

men veldig skummel! fint bilde :D

bzzz
:iconlejonlurv:
I'm sure the wasps will love it too, but I don't like them!!! :) I'm scared of most flying insects, but bumblebees are sooo cute... and they are much kinder. I've heard of people having them almost like pets, cause they feed them sugar. :D

Thanks again!! :hug: :)
