Will make it rough if you plan to photograph flowers since they are always around! Glad you are working on overcoming your fears and taking such wonderful photos ! honey or bumblebees . . . they are fun to watch for sure but very unpleasant if you don’t feel uneasy around them.

I am now more aware of bumblebee anatomy, though I'll probably stay away from both just for safe measure. :) As far as I know, I have never been stung. My parents insist as a young child I was not scared of bees. Thanks! I am now more aware of bumblebee anatomy, though I’ll probably stay away from both just for safe measure.

Now just as a psychological query. Do not feel under any pressure to answer it, but were you stung at a young age?

The long antennae give it away as a male, and males have no stingers. There’s no need to have fear of that bumble bee. The long antennae give it away as a male, and males have no stingers.
