It can even go until close to 4km of its hive.

Good one! I like strong yellow pollen on the bee and very good sharpness.

Very good Christian.
I hope the bee is'nt allergic to pollen.
Very nice colours and good details.

Impecable composicion de colores Christian... el amarillo de la flor, del polen y de las bandas de la abeja haciendo juego, como en la mejor alta costura francesa.
Buena agudeza, agradable POV y DOF.

Two beautiful specimens nicely juxtaposed here in the frame, Taz. That bee is "drowning" in the pollen.

Lovely macro!! Loaded with pollen!!
