#1080 - Bee and Sunflower Shots for Wednesday.
Good Wednesday morning once again dearest Hiveans across the globe! A clear and steady Wednesday is here, let's continue to support and inspire one another here on Hive. Your presence and efforts are a vital part of our shared story. You are doing great this week😉.
For our daily shots, back then on one early Sunday morning at the University of the Philippines Diliman campus where the air was cool and the best reward after a long jog around the academic oval was walk around slowly. My wife and I found ourselves nearby the Oblation where there were vibrant sunflowers standing tall and facing the rising sun. We weren't the only ones who had stopped, other joggers who finished were also stopping by.
The flowers were as usual breathtaking. Each one was like a sun on a stalk with a brown center with brilliant yellow petals. But the real magic was the sound of humming that filled the air. The sunflowers were busy with early morning visitors.
Getting up close through the screen we could see every incredible detail. Numbers of bee would land on the dark center of the sunflower. Their legs already with yellow pollen from other flowers which they use to dig into the flowers center. You could see the bee gather for nectar.
The morning sun was still low while it backlit the bees making their bodies glow and their wings look like transparent. We took photo after photo. One shot captured a bee while landing on flowers. Another froze a moment where it was on the edge of the brown center as it gather pollens.
All around us, the campus was slowly waking up but in the patch of sunflowers, time felt suspended. It was a beautiful, peaceful thing with nature, a perfect Sunday morning for us there as the moment where we witnessed the beautiful work that keeps our world blooming.
Follow me on my nature travels.
