Nature will bear the closest inspection. She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain.

    Great insect capture. I often don't see the bugs in my own shots until I download.

    Wow! Beautiful captured! I am pretty sure that the bee was enjoying the sweetness of the flower's juice.

    Looking at the insect, these flowers must be really tiny! They're also beautiful!

    Hi there - splendid looking wasp (I think its a wasp rather than a bee) - those jaws could do smaller insects a lot of harm!
