Brilliant photography at its best. May I say not many people actually see nature like this, let alone photograph it.

agree on comments
Really nice.
Always intrigues me to see one take off.
Love the animation.

Bee Hotel??
What is that? Bee Hive by another name - one for well catered for bees?

Hotel for the more discerning bee, none of that honey bee sharing a room.
