This variety of Dalilah from our garden is called Pooh and was developed locally by Swan Island Dahlias. They are great for pollinators.

Very nice shot. I have a thing about bees (yes, even honey bees) since I walked into a hornet's nest at 9 years old. But this is a great shot.

About the same age for me: the local city park had a ramp where the groundskeepers would drive their Gators (or other such vehicles) and dump their leaves.

A ramp with a pile of leaves off the end? It was a temporary dream come true for a kid and apparently a next of bees thought the same.
