Gorgeous shot. I guess the hair is a good way to catch pollen that doesn't make it into their sacs. (I can picture a groom-fest back at the hive.)

wayfaring stranger: thanks, will do.
Until yesterday, I never thought it possible, but this is almost a posed shot. I learned that bees move very slowly on cold mornings. So slowly, in fact, that you can wait until they crawl on a flower you like and you can make doubly sure your AF has them in focus.
