The flowers that i received for my BD were so beautiful that I took these on the table in the garden so that I could make fotos in the sun light. A minute later a big bee came on one of the flowers and I was fascinated with it. I never knew that after flowers are cutt off the plant bees were still feeding on them :) What do you think of this one?

First of all HAPPY BIRTHDAY :)
That is some awesome photo of that bee on the flower!! Love it...I don't really think it matters if the flowers are cut or not, I guess a bee is a bee is a bee, and will be attracted to a flower, whether it's cut or not

Hiya Pyewacket and thank you for the congratz and also for the compliment :) And I guess you must be right about the bees are bees, and bees again, so they eat any flower cutted off or not :)
Btw, I just finished making my cat blog and started it. What you could do - if you wish of course - is sending me pictures of your cats with included their names, and race, and age, and they will get exposure on it :) see it here: www.mycat.be

Hi Ambiepam, hehehe, LOL, yes, I used a lens, but usually I am approaching all the insects with great care, and as slowly as possible so that i don't disturb, and make them fly away ;) as I am not really afraid to get stung or bitten ;)
