I was taking photos of dragonflies over a pool when I realized there was a good deal of buzzing around where I stood. Looking around, I saw a fair number of bees collecting water from the edge of the pool. Luckily, I wasn’t bothering them and they didn’t bother me. I took a few photos and then returned to the futile practice of photographing dragonflies in motion.
I love bees and dragonflies! I have taken many close ups of bees. Never been stung while taking photos. A few months back I saw bees in water too, I thought that was odd! I guess they need a drink sometimes too! 🐝🐝

It’s the same with butterflies and the like. I always think of them getting nectar from flowers but they need water too.

Great bee photos Graham. Like Jo, I await the dragonfly shots 🙂 🙂

Thanks, Brian. As I replied to Jo, I’ve already posted my best shot from that day. I recently got some nice photos of one that was unwise enough to land, which I’ll run, probably fairly soon.

Well, the bottom photo of my Kiholo walk (https://grahamsisland.com/2021/02/17/a-walk-around-kiholo-bay/) was about as good as it got, so you’ve already seen that. I do have an abstract looking one, from that day that, I’ll probably run sometime.
