Yesterday I posted a photo and asked if you could identify what it was. A few got it correct, including @myklj999 (JJ).
The answer is... a Bumble Bee. I was taking a photo of the butterfly bushes in Dustin's garden. They have both been covered in bumble bees for days now.
I took many videos and photos. The photo above shows four bees on one flower. All of a sudden one of the bees came towards my phone camera.
And that is what you see in the blurry part of the photo. Bumble bee eyes!
Photos are mine.
Yesterday I was in the garden and sunshine. I took many photos, as always. And some videos as well. I was going though them today, deleting and looking at what...

@CarolDM I think it would be fun if you did them on a semi-regular basis. It really gives us something to think about and ponder instead of just giving cookie-cutter responses to most posts on this site.

@moffittjc Thanks, I will add it to my calendar so I don't forget. It would be something different too.

@CarolDM Bees are so darn quick, when they focus on a target!

@kobesbuddy They were focused on the blooms and caught me off guard. But their intention was not to sting.

It's been a few years since I saw a bumblebee up close, but I think that I would recognize that cute little face anywhere.

I could never identity the type of bees. I just see them as bees.
