Gathering nectar from a Henbit blossom on a sunny morning. The males don’t have a stinger and are curious about humans and will often allow you to touch them. They have a white/yellow patch on their face, covered by the flower in this shot, and large green eyes. Gaston County, NC, USA. Canon XS, 1/320, f8, ISO 200, Sigma 70mm EX DG Macro, RAW. 3/30/2015 Otto L Danby II
