Busy, Busy, Bzzzzzy

As the days slowly become shorter, and the light is starting to change to Fall's golden hues, the bumble bees are revving up their work schedule to almost frantic levels.  All day long, they fly briskly from blossom to blossom, lingering only long enough to sip whatever nectar they can find before moving on to the next target.  There is an urgency to their pace that wasn't so evident back in July.  This handsome fellow with his black patent bottom and fuzzy yellow bolero seemed a little overdressed for this morning's oppressive heat and humidity, but perhaps he's so intent on his task he doesn't notice!
