  11. Oh I love your shots! What the heck kind of beetle is that?! I don't know if I've ever seen one of those. That snail is cute. :) Bees, they scare the heck out of me. Mainly because I've never been stung *knock on wood* and I'm worried I could be allergic.

    I hope I didn't offend you with my football post today. Sorry if you're an Ohio fan. ;)

  17. Oh, I love these! Animal pictures are the best -- and hardest to capture. Like you, I've spent lots of time following a buzzing bee around trying to grab the right moment. Even worse, I once trailed hummingbirds which are so fast but so beautiful that they're worth the effort.

    I'm lovin' the focus of your blog.

  18. Snails make me smile. Is that weird? I think they are sort of cute. Okay, yes, that is weird. I really love that last picture! Beautiful shots!

    You're braver than I am for getting the shot with the bees!

  27. Beautiful photos. My compliments! After 35 years gardening for a living, I admire bees as gentle harmless creatures. Hornets, now, are another thing entirely.
