These are excellent. Delicate light balance. Have not seen purple pollen before!

Nice shots, I have seen the odd Ashy mining bee around here but have not got such good images as you.

Thank you Mark! I do appreciate it. I saw the purple on the bees going into a hive, & then saw the bees in the cilantro.

Thanks Brenda, I have no doubt you will! Plant some cilantro & they will come. :-) Although there must be very little pollen in each flower, & the bees move quick making them hard to shoot, the flower heads are many & close together & that makes it easier.
