ತುಂಬೆಹೂವು ಮತ್ತು ಜೇನುಹುಳ
Tumbe Hoovu is a favorite flower of Lord Shiva's, a soft velvety single petal flower with a mild pleasant aroma. I think thumbe-gida is a wild plant.
A moment before I shot, the bee zipped into the frame.
The bee would hover at a point for couple of seconds. In a flash it would be hovering at a different point. This particular type of bee has superb control on its movement- stop, hover, move, stop, hover.
Probably that's the way it inspects a flower before settling on it to gather nectar.
Wonderful creature!

Cosmos flowers
Cosmos is one of my favorite flowers, it's so simple yet beautiful.
Sunday evening at Botanical Garden at Karnatak University, I ventured into this patch of Cosmos plants, it was buzzing with bees, busy gathering nectar and spreading pollen.
