Undercover Bee It's always a challenge for me to get a bee hovering in front of the flowers, but I feel specially lucky with this one because of the pollen disguise she has, unfortunately that makes the identification much harder :-\ Europe,Geotagged,Macro,Portugal,Spring,bee,flying,insect,spring Click/tap to enlarge Promoted

      ^_^ yes, when I took the photo I thought it was a white bee, it was in the screen of the computer that I realized it was a "pollen suit" :-D Posted 3 years ago

        hehe. When you look closely at the anatomy of some bees, you'll see they are specifically designed to carry as much pollen as possible in one trip. This one is kind of extreme though :) Posted 3 years ago
