The fleeting wing beating Bee
Bee's they are a tough capture. They can be really fast, flitting from flower to flower, gathering that pollen to make honey to feed the hive to keep them all alive. They hardly ever stop to rest.

I did crop and color enhances the image some using the Nikon Camera software.
Bee's are not that easy to get a picture of, I have seen much better pictures of bee's but I am very happy with this picture. I am by no stretch of the imagination even remotely close to a professional photographer, so I am extremely pleased with the shot. He is in focus, he is flying, my first in focus flying bee shot ever.
Just look at that wing movement, now that's some fast beating wings. He looks so steady there in flight, eyes focused on his next destination, and nothing going to get in his way, even a stupid human with a camera.
