Good grief, these must have been some those giant killer bees from the 50s Sci-Fi Movies, that always kept escaping, just look at the size of them.

This is really good work Carol, I'm well impressed, hats off to you.

Thanks so much for your very kind compliment!

You realise you've just upset about 25 million Texans, who always think they've got the biggest everything, or so I've been informed... by a Texan.

I'm with you on this as I take all my shots hand held and prefer to work this way, just hope it lasts.

Wonderful images Carol.

It must be cold in them thar hills, as your bees are much hairier than ours " down under !!." Very well taken madam.

Peter, they certainly are fuzzy little critters! Summer has ended here; this morning 39 degrees F, with a winter storm advisory for tomorrow! So the bees better zip up their furry little coats!

Thanks for the kind comments on the images!
