Sunset Sunflower Bee Zen Serenade

ByNaturesGuy Dave

A native bee on a sunflower at sunset creates a zen-like moment. Coupled with the background of water splashing in the pond and Creation Girl Marnie Kuhns’ extemporaneous piano music, the colors, movement, and sounds help us connect with God in Nature, #BeZen, and #FindNatureJoy.

Sunflowers are native to North America, and I believe this is NOT a honeybee, but a bee native to NE Georgia, USA. (Especially notice the golden shine of the sunset on the bee’s wings.)
