Bee Fight (Two Photographs)

My e-Book Nature Photography: Making Photographs with Impact is for sale, just click on the title.

I was very surprised to learn that bees fight. This bout took about 4 seconds, and in the last round the bee on the right chose to fly off, leaving leftie to carry on pillaging the flowers. Nature Photographers are always on the look out for the unusual. This time it just happened while I was trying to shoot a metallic bee.

    Stunning photo Victor, I’m guessing they are from different colonies.
