More Bee Pictures!
The high season for the flowers at Linnemann Junction has come and gone already, but there are still a few honeysuckle and unknown pink flowers left, so there is still some food for particularly stubborn bees. The pink flowers are very slippery, so the honeybees end up sliding around the flower stalks while trying to get to the nectar in the flowers. I spent a couple of minutes trying to get pictures with autofocus on, but the bees moved faster than the glacially slow Pentax autofocus could adjust, so I flipped back to manual focus and was able to get a couple of in-focus pictures of honeybees hanging on for dear life as they scrounged for some bee fud.
