Variety of Bees at the local Arboretum

@moonlightlullaby thank you, there was a lot of luck involved.

@Magenta i loved watching them collect the pollen. Previous images I posted showed bees covered in pollen, these guys seemed much better prepared to save the pollen in their pollen sacks. I also was amazed by the degree of separation on some of them, between heads and thorax.

@MyNameIsHurl do they give you the honey? local raw honey is supposed to be good to prevent allergies. I take a teaspoon of local raw honey every day, i think it does help.

@samueltyler2 no, I don't know what they do with it, probably sell it to a local shop or personal use, it's a small setup

@MyNameIsHurl our building has hives on the roof, no one seems to know who benefits from the honey either. It upsets me, since i pay a lot for the honey i take.

@Primnproper thanks

@Wiseacre a little, but all of my labwork seems okay, so i have no idea what it was

@Nevertooold there was also a special station for monarch butterflies, but i did not see any, there were other butterflies though.
