small but mighty pollinator

i don't have an actual macro lens so this is just hand-held with my 18-55mm. i just couldn't believe how much pollen this tiny, the flower is a 3/4" buttercup for scale, wasp/bee had managed to accumulate on itself. i think it was actually having trouble taking flight because i was able to try 5 or 6 shots before i went back into work. the bosses youngest daughter and i were out getting her a 'roly-poly' bug (which i grew up calling potato bugs) for a pet and as i've said before...i do carry my camera almost everywhere.
dita requested to see some of brianna's, miss geniality in my dailies, drawings so here are a few (super-stressed mommies are like the nice man pointing a gun at you, do everything they tell you) plus one of my fav fun pics of her
