Bees on the Brain

Lately I've become obsessed with bees. Maybe it's because of Spring, or the blooming flowers everywhere, but I can't even count how many photos I've taken of bees over the last four or five days. This is an odd thing, because I'm quite afraid of bees. I've never been stung, but have an irrational fear of that very thing. My husband keeps warning me that I could stir up a swarm of killer bees (Africanized). Maybe now that I'm posting one of the photos I can finally stop.
