                        As
                          a child I was scared if not terrified of Bumble Bees,
                          Here I had no fear (butterfly garden). I was
                          surrounded by both Bumble bees, and Honey bees as they
                          flew in and out gathering nectar and pollen. I sat or crotched
                          down within inches to take many photos. It seems as
                          long as we don't antagonize, get "to close"
                          for comfort, or "nudge" them the wrong way,
                          They wont sting/attack.  |
