another fuzzy bee. small…but essential.

another micro-anthophoridae shot.    it was fun watching these little male bees (about 4 mm in length) scurrying to find a good spot to rest for the night.

seriously, if you want to see some great bee shots and learn i bit about bees, please visit my friend buzzybeegirl.

and please note: these guys are crucial in the pollination of our native flowers and crops!

night all! thanks for stopping by!

  1. I love the new blog. Those bees are very tiny but very colorful and cute. They sure seem to have long antenna compared to their body size.

  2. Excellent shot, Goodbear! And before this, I never knew there were such teeny, tiny bees in the world…
