Oh, I have lots of #BlurBees, too, and plenty with no bees at all, where they've just escaped altogether.😄

The blurbees are attracted to the echinops (globe thistles).

It's a busy week for the pollinators. Today is their day and their week, so I'm giving them extra shout outs. In pride of place are the #WeeBees, of course. Some #BlurBees, naturally. I'm no Soph or Alan.

Okay, I’m a wee bit embarrassed to admit that there is so much pollen on my car right now that a #bee was trying to collect pollen from it! 😳

Have a blessed start to the week lovelies 😘
A close-up macro photograph captures a buff-tailed bumblebee suspended beneath a cluster of pink flowers. The bee hovers mid-flight, facing left, its translucent wings rendered as soft, motion-blurred arcs that convey the rapid beat of flight. Its body is richly textured, with dense golden-yellow fur across the thorax and alternating black and pale bands along the abdomen. Bright orange pollen baskets on its hind legs are visibly laden with collected pollen. The flowers form a canopy around the bee, with delicate pink petals hanging overhead and to the right of the frame. The petals range from pale blush to deep magenta, their thin veining and softly folded edges illuminated by warm sunlight. The bee appears to be navigating through a sheltered floral corridor, framed by petals in the foreground and background. A shallow depth of field creates a dreamy, painterly backdrop of blurred pinks, greens and soft shadows, isolating the bee as the sharp focal point. Sunlight catches the bee's fur, highlighting individual hairs and creating a warm golden glow against the cooler pink tones of the blossoms. The composition gives the impression of a tiny, busy pollinator weaving through a hidden world beneath the flowers, with movement, colour and texture combining to create an intimate portrait of early summer foraging.

🐝🐝🌸😎😁
Close-up macro photograph of a bramble (blackberry) plant at several stages of its life cycle, arranged across a softly textured natural scene. In the foreground, delicate pink blackberry blossoms with crinkled petals and pale, brush-like stamens spill over the edge of a weathered stone wall mottled with grey, white and ochre lichen. Nestled among the flowers is a bright green cluster of newly forming blackberry fruits, each tiny drupelet still firm and unripe. Hovering just above the blossoms at centre-right is a bumblebee in flight, its black body marked with creamy-white and yellow bands. The bee's wings are rendered as a translucent blur, conveying the rapid motion of its wingbeats as it approaches the flowers. Slightly behind it, another bee is partially hidden among the stamens, actively foraging within a fading bloom. The bramble stems weave diagonally through the composition, armed with sharp reddish thorns that contrast with the softness of the flowers. Surrounding the bees are numerous spent blossoms and seed heads, their petals gone and replaced by intricate curls of drying filaments in shades of cream, tan and brown. These ageing flowers sit alongside fresh blooms and developing fruit, creating a visual timeline of growth, pollination and renewal within a single frame. The background dissolves into a rich blur of green foliage, isolating the bees and blossoms while emphasizing the textures of fur, petals, thorns and lichen-covered stone. The image captures a fleeting moment of pollinator activity while also revealing the broader story of the blackberry plant's seasonal transformation—from flower, to pollination, to fruit.

Ready. Steading. Go. 🐝🏃‍♂️😉
Close-up macro photograph of two bumblebees hovering above clusters of tiny white blossoms surrounded by glossy green leaves. The larger bee dominates the upper left of the frame, suspended in mid-air with its fuzzy black, yellow and white body sharply defined against a softly blurred background. A subtle motion blur on its translucent wings conveys the rapid beat of flight. To the right, a second bee hovers just above the flowers, also showing gentle wing movement as it approaches the blooms. The flowers form a delicate spray of cream-white petals and pale yellow centres, while the large, richly textured leaves beneath them catch the light, revealing deep veins and a waxy sheen. The shallow depth of field isolates the bees and blossoms from the muted background of soft greens, browns and creams, creating a sense of stillness around the fleeting movement of the insects. The composition captures a moment of airborne choreography, with both bees appearing to pause briefly before landing to forage among the flowers.

Gotta love a #weebee 🐝😉
Close-up macro photograph of a buff-tailed bumblebee suspended in mid-air as it approaches a red-and-white flower. The bee fills the left side of the frame, its fuzzy black body marked by a vivid golden-yellow thoracic band and a pale buff-coloured tail. Its front legs are extended forward as though reaching for a landing point, while grains of bright yellow pollen cling to one of its hind legs. The bee's wings are blurred by rapid motion, conveying the energy and precision of flight. On the right side of the image, a delicate flower hangs into view, its upper petals creamy white with a vivid pink blush at the tips, transitioning into deep crimson-red lower petals. The bee hovers just centimetres away from the bloom, creating a moment of anticipation as though frozen between flight and landing. The background dissolves into a soft wash of green foliage rendered in smooth bokeh, isolating the interaction between pollinator and flower. Bright sunlight catches the bee's fur and the flower's petals, adding contrast and warmth to the scene. The composition captures a fleeting instant of movement, highlighting both the agility of the bumblebee and the ecological partnership between insect and plant.

Again your so-called BlurBees are much the same as my shots that I think are tip-top. Oh, well. Must try harder. Another masterclass from the Bee Lady.

Topsy Turvy 🐝😊
Close-up macro photograph of a bumblebee hanging upside down beneath a cluster of tubular flowers, likely ornamental sage. The bee fills the lower centre of the frame, caught mid-forage with its body angled diagonally and its legs reaching upward to grip the flower. Its dense black body is edged with warm golden-yellow bands that glow in the sunlight, while the wings appear softly blurred, suggesting the vibration and movement of feeding rather than complete stillness. Above and around the bee, elongated blossoms cascade downward. Each flower fades from soft white and blush pink into vivid crimson at the tips and throats, creating strong colour contrast against the bee’s dark body. The petals have a delicate, velvety appearance and curl slightly at their ends. Green sepals and stems form a layered canopy overhead, with tiny hairs catching points of light. The background falls away into a dreamy wash of greens and reds, heavily softened by shallow depth of field so that the bee and nearest blooms become the clear focal point. Bright sunlight picks out glossy highlights across the bee’s thorax and the flower edges, giving the image warmth and energy. The composition captures a fleeting moment of pollination — part acrobatics, part determination — with the bee appearing almost suspended in mid-air beneath the flowers.
