Between Wings and Wildflowers – Female Carpenter Bee III

Surrounded by a living tapestry of stems and blooms, the Carpenter Bee lifts her head toward the dappled sunlight. Tiny flecks of pollen cling to her body, testaments to her morning’s work. Every detail, from the tension in her antennae to the gentle curve of the flower against her thorax, tells a quiet story of persistence written in shades of green and lilac.
