I finally pinned one down long enough to get a pic ;) but it wasn't with a macro lens. Hope you enjoy it anyway!

Nice shot Bea, that is a very unusual bee. I like the environmental shot of the flower but would love to see a close-up and see the detailed features of this little fellow.

LOL! So would I!!! Unfortunately these bees never sit still for any decent period of time and to top that off they are very shy. I have yet to get close enough to one where I could use the 70-200 with tubes. But at least I have a little project for the summer: make friends with a carpenter bee ;)
