Lovely seeing this and other photos of Bees, there do seem to be a lot more this year. Hopefully the doommongers will be proved wrong this time? though I suppose it's early days yet.

thanks guys.
well already this yr wagger ive seen plenty of bees so i too hope their wrong

~The govt has just allocated £10 million to look into the problem so lets hope they get going and find an answer sooner rather than later!Something to do with parasite mites?

fingers crossed the can find a solution

I must say this is a fabulous photo Irish. may I ask what make of camera you are using, I can't get close ups anywhere near like this on my camera. Tref.

thanks Tref,
its just a compact digital camera, a Samsung P800.
there may be a setting on your camera for close ups, i just mesed around with it when i got it to find out what the different settings where

love this picture brilliant x
