This is Thermopsis lanceolata, from the garden at the college.
A sunny flower that had the bees flying about it. Considering the shutter speed was a 250th of a second, I wonder how fast their wings were actually moving...
This last photo is looking at her, head on.

bee add beauty to the flowers..nice shot Judy!
I especially like the bottom photo of the bee looking at me - it's wings a rainbow blur in the background. Delightful!
These are wonderful photos. I really like the action of the wings of the bumblebee.
Great shots Judy, I love your capture of the wings in motion. She is a real beauty.
Last spring I caught some wing motion on a honey bee and looked up the figure. If I remember right it was 120 - 240 beats per second.
