I know, I know, another bee on a flower picture! Hey, what can I say. I just love the relationship between the insects and the flowers. It is an amazing cycle of dependence, mutual benefits, and life, that I struggle to understand in more detail.
Yellow Cone Flower - Rudbeckia laciniata
These beautiful flowers were adorning the summit of Mt. LeConte
on a recent hike up to the Mt. LeConte Lodge for an overnight stay.
Nature has the most awesome green thumb!

Enjoys the air it breathes!"

Nice shots of the flowers. Whose that up on the porch of the lodge. He looks really tires. LOL

Thanks Chris for stopping by and leaving a comment. If you want to know who was the most tired, you should look at the guy behind the camera. He's the one whose flip flops were dragging before the summit. Ha Ha!
No - not tired of bee on flower shots - not as long as they're as well-captured as you do Randy. Yes, what marvelous clothing God provides for his creation - and our enjoyment. Wonderful shots !
Wow - FIELDS of flowers. Gorgeous! Helps with my current state of nature deprivation, acquired through spending too much time in air conditioning.
Rick, Thanks for your continued inspiration through those encouraging words. I really do appreciate your visits. Traveling from the lowlands up to the 6600' peak really takes you through the seasons as spring is just happening up top.
Thanks Sheila for your comments and yes I was blown away when I made the lodge and saw all the bloomers everwhere. It was my second spring of the year. I can relate to the air conditioning also. This summer has been too hot for my taste but I am blessed and am trying not to grumble. Have a great trip to Maine.
