sweet january surprise
Today dawned dark and dreary with a leaden sky and little hope for good wildlife photography. But by midafternoon it was sunny and warm with the temperature reaching 58 degrees. And even with the surprisingly balmy January day in Delaware I had no idea I would be photographing a micro world of honeybees and other warm-weather insects until I found a tree just buzzing with activity. Honeybees were busy collecting as much pollen as possible and even a fly and a Red Admiral (butterfly) emerged from hibernation for a mid-winter snack.
