Micro.blog photo challenge Day 27: collective #mbjune

A solitary bee on a flower

I’m not an expert on bee identification but if this is a hive bee (instead of a solitary bee) it is gathering food for its collective.

Reconsidering my whole idea of photo posting. I’ve settled on 4 spots: Lightroom Web Albums for events (mostly family and friends), SmugMug for art, Instagram for audience, Micro.blog for blogging fun. Could be some cross-posting and definitely some reorg. Goodbye Flickr.
