[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Another macro: the solitary digger bee "Andrena Vaga", photographed in Sclaigneaux, Belgium, with the Coolpix 990 out-of-the-box! This species has suffered a serious decline in 1999 due to its parasitoids: Nomada lathburiana and Bombylius major. I'll show you these species later on!

Fantastic capture Stephane. The details are amazingly good as well as the colours. This little lady has really been very busy with the pollen sacks almost full. Lovely tight cropping/composition. Excellent job - well done.

Vos photos sont vraiment excellentes, et il est dommage que vous ne participiez pas plus activement à la vie du site par vos commentaires sur les photos des membres. Je suis persuadé que vos connaissances et votre sens de la photo de nature pourrait bénéficier à la communauté de TrekNature. En tout cas, cette abeille est magnifique et votre note dit l'essentiel. Très belle macro, Stephane.
