Obliging Bumble Bee

I was out in my front garden, trying to get close-ups of daffodils, when along came this black bumble bee, no doubt seeking the Amber Nectar (a pun on a Fosters Lager TV ad by the way). He obligingly perched in a nearby trumpet so I had no alternative but to capture him with my Olympus Stylus 1S in Super Macro mode. 1/640th at f2.8, ISO 100. No doubt you will agree that there aren't too many opportunities like that. Hope you like!
