Busy bee on wildflower... High Coast of Sweden, 2011.

Still wading through images from my trip to Sweden in mid-June... posted another day of travel on my other blog if you want to have a look. In the meantime, here are a couple of bumble-bee images from our visit to the High Coast area of Sweden. This bee is different from our bumble-bees here in the US and I don't know the wildflower either!

  10. I know what you mean about falling behind in processing vacation photos. I'm still trying to finish up my African Safari photos from 2009 and I only made a dent in my Norway 2010 photos. Life is happening faster than I can record.

    I love the colors in your shots and the busy little bee is sweet as can be.
