Nomada bee on dandelion

Nomada bees are tiny wasp-like red and yellow bees. Here, the dandelion was so occupying the bee, that I was able to get very close. Normally, these bees rarely stop!

Great shot of this pretty little bee Christine. I know how difficult they are to photograph with their constant movement. Claudia
