Pistols at Dawn

This bumblebee is clearly threatening me with a shootout if I don't back off.

Quiet day today - mostly waiting for the plumber to arrive to fix my broken pipe. Though I did have time to duck out to the Red Barn this morning for my daily coffee. Didn't take any photos while I was out there, so had to trawl the garden this afternoon to see what I could find.

I was trying to get as close as possible to capture that handsome beard and mustache that this bumblebee is sporting. He didn't appreciate it.

I had a link here for the larger version so that you can see him even hairier - but the link won't seem to work, so if you want more detail (which I think is worth checking out) you'll have to click on the magnifying glass under my image instead.
