Thanks for noting my picture in your blog. Actually the bee was so apparently focused on a female Xylocopa on a flower, that the hard thing was that the bee would get too close for me to focus on it.
Thank you Paul. Actually, I really like your gulls mobbing for food picture, too (http://www.flickr.com/photos/pdecell/4224445812/) so I was tempted to link to that, but I have a bit of a soft spot for bees. Thanks for sharing your photos.
Thank you for visiting my blog. Like many people, I have been fascinated by the natural world all my life. After completing a degree in microbiology and a doctorate in zoology, I worked for five years as a research biologist and another three as a freelance science writer, magazine columnist and nature photographer.
I am currently employed at The University of Namur, in Belgium as a Research Scientist and Lecturer (maƮtre des conferences) in Science Communication.
I have two blogs- "Weirdbeautiful", which I update and write myself, and "Victoria Neblik Art", which is usually updated for me. If you want to see more of my work, I also have regular interview columns in "Practical Reptile Keeping" Magazine and “Small Furry Pets” Magazine, some videos on youtube and several books in various stages of the publication process.
You can contact me through my website- http://www.victorianeblik.com.

Great picture of the bee, and nice of the photographer to write to you.
