Some bee

When, today, I saw this bee busily going from flower to flower on our holly bush, I thought it was a red-belted bumblebee. And I thought I was pretty smart to identify it, even if I did have to use a local field guide to insects.

So I posted a picture of it to a local Insects webpage where immediately some other posters pointed out it is a honey bee.

Ah well, I have no pride in being wrong. :)

But, y'know, I never saw a honey bee until I was in my sixties. So I even have an excuse if the pride does creep in.
