So, what is a pollinator?. I love watching the various insects and birds as they come to the aid of plants. Nature is amazing. (The link above is a good read if you are interested).

Funny that when I was looking at this photo I missed the bee. I love it when I find more in a photo after I take the picture. That seems to happen more often than I would expect.

This is a Brown-belted Bumble Bee. We are coming to the end of summer. Morning tempeatrues are cooler now and we are seeing fewer birds species. Time to get ready for winter (boo).

I have not seen many Western Honey Bee this year. I think this is the fist time I have photographed one this year. I have a thing for honey. ❤️

This is a Lemon Cuckoo Bumblebee. They are farily common here in Ohio.
I have to share a short story. We were hiking near the Stillwater River where I was filming for a video I made for Macstock. I had a backpack over my shoulder with my gear in it. I felt a need to scratch an itch. It was under the right side of my backpack. It felt like I had a thistle stuck to my shirt, so I pulled it away and tossed it into the bush. Well, it was a bumblebee, and it got me good. It was not as painful as the last time a yellowjacket got me in the wrist, but it did hurt.
The second photo includes a Goldenrod Soldier Beetle getting in a photo bomb.
