Nectar Of The Gods

[Coastal Flyer]

It may be closing in on December 1, but in San Diego the bird of paradise are in bloom and the bees stop by for a quick drink of the sweet nectar inside.

I guess I am loosing my mind because I thought that I had already posted a reply but here it goes again. I think the colors are very vivid and stand out well against the green background. The focus is right on and this combination makes for a very nice picture, Jeff

Thanks Grandpaw. I appreciate you leaving a comment.

I forgot to reply to this the first time I saw it, but the colors in this are magnificent. The OOF green background really makes this shot

This is awesome! The colors are out of this world. You've nailed this one.

Oh, what a beautiful sight! Oklahoma is now brown.

A lot of color here CF. Very pretty. The bee is icing on the cake so to speak.

Thanks, GB. I was waiting for my Mom to get off the phone, picking her up on Friday morning for the weekly errand run. Her patio is surrounded by bird of paradise, I had my camera and took advantage of the perfect morning light. Hope you had a nice holiday weekend.
