My shadow drew near
they squirmed with discomfort
on their bed of rock

New Blogger, Old Blogger
All I can say it is difficult to deal with change. This new Blogger format is not as user friendly in my opinion. I guess I will get us...
*grin* Wonderful pictures, and even better haiku!
ReplyDeleteLisa, I, too, smiled at the bees' activity. Wonderful haiku.
ReplyDeleteNice Haiku, Lisa.
ReplyDeleteOh my a miracle moment here too!
ReplyDeleteI find Nature just so facinating!
I captured two butterflies in this union..last summer..I should post it one day..I thought all would blush but it's only natural right!
Great photo opportunity Lisa!
I don't believe I've ever seen bees doing the wild thing. Wow! I imagine hearing David Attenborough's voice in the background telling us all about the wonders of bee-mating, etc.
ReplyDeleteAh Nature! :-) Well done, Lisa!
Hi again Lisa, wonderful capture!! Have a great weekend :-D
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful photo Lisa! The sharpness is magnificent, even if you were blushing. :c)
ReplyDeleteGreat haiku, Lisa. And what a photo op! I have to admit I'm so naive I wasn't sure what they were doing until I read all the comments:)
ReplyDeleteI am glad you all like my haiku. I have had the worst time trying to get a picture of a bumble bee on my flowers. They seem to be so fast in and out of the blossoms. This day I caught them, errrr, otherwise occupied and got their photo.
ReplyDeleteI think they were squirming in delight! :) Nature at its' best.
ReplyDeleteLisa, lovely and remarkable as usual.
ReplyDeleteYou may like to see the pheasant and her chick on my blog, not up to your standard of photography but rather cute.
Great pictures! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat macro -- and I like the haiku too.
ReplyDeleteFrom a practical point of view, I find that the only time some insects hold still enough or me to photograph is during mating.
Geez, you have seen and captured something that I have never seen or even thought about.
ReplyDeleteLovely verse also.
BTW-HAW means Happy Animal Wednesday :)
I was blushing when I came in. I have never been seen bees "in the act" either.
ReplyDeleteBut, I have to honest. It is a miracle in action. They were just oblivious to the camera action. Great haiku... Kayce
Beautiful bee post....and doing what come naturally....love it Lisa.
ReplyDeleteYou choose the right moment to take the picture. Very good snapshot!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures, Lisa! I caught mating mantises last year and watched out of curiosity to see if she would take off his head afterwards. She didn't. I find all aspects of nature fascinating, even the mating. I've seen the birds do it but never the bees. Thanks for the education!
ReplyDeleteDear Lisa,
ReplyDeleteWonderful to know the Bumbles are mating in your gardens.
Soon you will have bumble babies....ahhh
the birds and the bees...
thank you for the fun haiku too.
