Bumble bee on a Michaelmas daisy
Pollination. Macrophotograph of a white-tailed bumble bee, Bombus lucorum, visiting a flowering Michaelmas daisy, Aster frikartii. Insects such as bees feed on the sugary fluid (nectar) and pollen found in flowers. The bee is attracted to flowers by their bright colours. As it reaches inside the flower to gather the nectar, the bee may become dusted with pollen. The bee may also brush pollen from another flower onto this flowers reproductive organs causing cross-pollination. Michaelmas daisies are perennial plants with mauve flowers.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of nature's pollination process. In this macrophotograph, a white-tailed bumble bee, Bombus lucorum, gracefully lands on a flowering Michaelmas daisy, Aster frikartii. The vibrant colors of the flower attract the bee as it seeks out the sugary nectar and nutritious pollen within. As the bee delves deep into the flower to collect its nourishment, it inadvertently becomes coated in pollen grains. This accidental dusting allows for cross-pollination to occur when the bee moves on to another flower, unknowingly transferring pollen from one plant's reproductive organs to another. Michaelmas daisies are perennial plants adorned with enchanting mauve flowers that serve as vital sources of sustenance for bees and other insects. Through their delicate proboscis, these industrious creatures extract nectar while simultaneously facilitating plant reproduction. Captured at 2.5 times magnification on a 35mm size frame, this photograph offers us an intimate glimpse into this symbiotic relationship between bees and flowers. It reminds us of nature's remarkable interconnectedness and highlights the essential role that pollinators play in maintaining our planet's biodiversity. This stunning image is brought to you by Science Photo Library - a testament to their dedication in capturing awe-inspiring moments from our natural world without any commercial intentions involved.
