Default Two bees

Ok I came across these on my front porch and thought it was weird I've never seen bees doing this. I havent got my macro lens yet so I used my 70-300mm lense at 300 at about 5ft away

Good capture- they are bees- presumably just before/after mating

yeah I've just never seen bees mating before and thought it was cool. Too bad my macro lense is still in the mail
