busy bees
Here is something you don’t see every day. We all know the Honeybee as they are quite common buzzing around backyards gathering flower nectar and pollen. But you seldom encounter a swarm on the move. These social insects live in hives that may contain as many as 20,000 bees. On occasion, Honeybees change the location of their hives and you can see the swarm on the move. These bees were bedding down for the night on a tree branch.

I trust you were using a lens that allowed you to keep your distance!
