Our Leonine Nature ...

Bees, what would we do without them. I have heard people use feather dusters in some places where the bees have died out, to pollinate the crop.

These are a healthy lot too, looking strong and well groomed. Lion-like with their big manes – is what they remind me of.

That they are feral, gone wild in a local forest, might be significant to their health. Having nobody exploiting them.

No doubt they have their difficulties but they can always be seen to take clean water from near the flow.

Wonderful shots Mark. Well detailed and beautifully lit.
Makes me want to go home and put the macro lens on the camera and wander about in the garden, but too much work to do here

You've gotta love Bees, each has it's own personality.
