Life Photo Meme: Bee and a Mum



I saw this lone bee, a honey bee I think on a cold day in October in middle Tennessee. She should not have been out, but she doing her "busy as bee" routine. Visiting several flowers of this mum, one of the few late fall flowering flowers. Bees are important for pollination and the flower reproduction cycle.

Pretty! I just love finding bees on flowers when I have my camera, but not if I'm trying to smell the flowers. :)
