Yeah we've got our share around here. It's just that when I see one that I can get a shot of, I don't have my camera. I'm just not quick enough.;)

Gorgeous set Bill - lovely looking bumble bee :-) I agree, they are very difficult to take pics of as they are on the go the whole time, so you have done really well getting these.
