Did you take that picture? Its so good.
Yep, me and that bee are best buds after the photo shoot yesterday. (Thanks Julie *.*)
The picture is amazing. I am so scared of bees and am amazed that you were that close. Have you ever thought about being a professional photographer? Your pictures are always so good, so interesting.

Steph, the bee was so busy doing his thing (posing maybe) that me and my little camera were no bother to him. And you know, the photos are all for you, my visitors, just to brighten you days a bit. That alone makes me happy :)
Since all the bees are disappearing from San Joaquin Valley and Silicon Valley here in California it appears that they somehow are ending up on Iceland.
An Icelandic gang perhaps?
Next time you see a bee, please turn it upside down and I am sure you will see a small sign: "Made in the United States" on its belly. :-)
And once more, just to be sure, in Swedish:
Eftersom alla bina försvinner från San Joaquin Valley och Silicon Valley här i Kalifornien så verkar det som om de på något konstigt sätt hamnar på Island.
En isländskt liga kanske?
Nästa gång du ser ett bi kan du kanske vända det upp och ner på det. Jag är säker på att du kommer att se ett litet "Made in USA" på magen.
Hälsningar från Silicon Valley.
Hello from London!
You're my official Iceland tour guide now!
It's so good to be able to admire the beauty of your country through your photographs!
Lennart, you're so funny. Expat bees...mhmmm.
Seriously, in the TED lecture I linked in the post, the guy is talking about having little meadows instead of lawns, which are like green deserts, and even that it's possible to have a little meadow of wildflowers and grasses in a planter box or whatever on one's balcony, etc. That way bees have a place to go, as well as other insects. Give them a home and they'll be your friends! They have no interest in bothering us. Here's the secret:
If you've got a bee or wasp that's come in a little too close, just act like a plant, move slowly, like you're swaying in the wind, walk slowly, like an Ent (LOTR reference,) and everything will be fine.
Bees like me. I whisper to them and tell them they're pretty. Happy stuff.
Hi London! Welcome to Iceland!
As usual your pics amaze and your words inspire......

Greetings from Cape Town,
I would love to see Iceland one day. But for the moment I'm stuck on Planet Capri.
