    Excellent. I know some persnickety people who would ask, "Hotw can she know it's the bee's first grevillea?" To them, I say, "Buzz off!"

    An incredible photo, Dalloway.

    The suggestion that the bee is looking for an angle in that burst of pink curvature - I like that.

    wow. so many comments. I was pretty happy with this shot - I suspect this is one of Polona's posing bees

    a lovely verse Gillena, thank you.

    Bill, I got the same persnickety thoughts. No doubt it will get reworded if I have another haiku dream.
