Busy Bees

It's so awesome to watch the bees working in the garden. Many plants that produce fruit rely on bees for pollination. So we want them around! Many pesticides kill bees, and this is just one of the many reasons we choose to not use any pesticides in our garden. Or anywhere on our property, for that matter. Here, I got a few good shots showing some bees in action.  

In the above pictures, you can see the pollen sacs on it's legs filling up with pollen, as it collects from corn anthers.
