Saddlebags

When I went to photograph the Goldenrod, I found them covered with honeybees, stocking up for the winter.  About a third of them had these pollen saddlebags, stuffed to the max, but the rest did not.  Either they had just unloaded, or it's not their job.

Oh Wow Eeyore...
this is the most coolest photo ever. I am so jealous!!! You must have awesome camera equipment.

This bee definitely has saddlebags.

I love the color in this photo.

Kudos to YOU! and thanks for sharing.

A decent camera (Sony Alpha 100), a good telephoto lens with extension tube, a good flash, and 27 shots to get one this good. Shoot a lot and hope one's good is my approach to the critters.
