Bumble Bee enjoying the last of our Butterfly Milkweed.  They do not allow me to get my face or body closer than about 3 feet, but they will tolerate being photographed if I slowly move just the camera to within about 3 inches of them.  (This seems to work better in the late summer and fall when they are very intent on gathering pollen and nectar.)
