Did you know that bees take naps? Yeah, I didn’t either.

Sleeping bee butts are a thing

Wonderful pics! I absolutely love the bumbles. Here's my little snoozer. 🐝💗

My husband @ScottNations and I are super into supporting pollinators. We raise #BlackSwallowtail butterflies on our deck in Chicago. Aren’t they beautiful?

Yes, this bee 🐝 is asleep.

I know they rest. I have seen them on flowers in my garden “resting” for short periods, but full-on napping? No. Very cool, and lovely shots! Thanks for sharing.

Great shots!

Great pics! It must be hard work getting all that pollen! Thanks for sharing!

Don’t you watch Outlander?

In springtime, our large clumps of borage ate filled with sleeping bees. It’s a delight.

I planted 3 ceanothus shrubs just so I'd have more bumble bees. 🐝😍

Aww, they were all tuckered out.

Beautiful! So peaceful.

Pretty much the one thing I learned on the interweb

My eye isn't trained enough to tell if they're sleeping in a still photo, but I believe you & it sounds utterly beautiful! One of those things you get a chance to experience MAYBE if you're paying close attentionthank you for sharing, Hoarse! ✌🏼🐝

awww they're cute!
