[RxForB3]

Had a very cooperative subject today, but still mostly failed in my attempts. These are the best. Suggestions, thoughts?

I love them

Thank you! Glad you like them. Scrolling down I just noticed that the bee is pretty much dead center on all of them. Guess I was focusing more on...uh...focusing.

I just did a quick crop to hopefully alleviate the composition problem on the second two.

Those two above look good to me composition wise. Cool looking bee.

Thank you! I think I figured out that technically it's a hoverfly (looks like a bee, but no stinger). I always wondered if that was just another name for "bee" but I guess not

I'm jealous. I like the last one best.

Bugguide.net is a good place to help ID a bug. I frequent it the most when trying to identify them.

Thanks! That's going to be a bookmark for me now Hopefully some more bugs will start showing signs of life around here soon.
