Hello,
Thank you to everyone for your nice words of encouragement. For all the blue-banded bee chasers out there, let me quickly add that this experience has been a totally unexpected aberration compared to my typical attempts, where the BBB flits (maddeningly) rapidly between flowers making it difficult and rare to get a good in-flight shot. It seems that the gods were smiling on me over the holidays!
I’m up for a BIMBO outing although maybe NYE of New Years Day might not be suitable with all the family festivities, etc?
Cheers
Dennis
