These are a few photographs from yesterday.

I scrambled to get the phone out after a curious #bee landed on one of my son’s hot chocolate cup.

The sweet chockie on the lid was a definite go-to for this little fella. In fact, he even went back for seconds.

(Notice in the middle shot, how he sucks up droplets of the liquid using a long straw-like tongue called a #proboscis? - pretty cool!)

Hummingbird Moth Gathering Nectar by Debra Martz The White-Lined Sphinx takes nectar from the #sunflower with its long #proboscis. They are often referred to as the #hummingbird #moth because of the bird-like size & flight patterns. It behaves like a hummingbird as it can fly extremely fast & instantly swing from side to side while hovering . It is a species of Hawk Moth.
