Bees bees and more bees

The cilantro is covered in honeybees, and below this are strawberries, covered in yellow jackets.
Does this remind you of a motorcyle cop?
Just coming in for a landing when I took this picture of an orange cosmos.
We have more honeybees than ever this year, it's wonderful to see them all. They're mostly on the cilantro, lavender, and mint; all herbs with hundreds of little flowers. I wonder what herb honey tastes like, mmmm, I think it must be pretty tasty.

The bee in the second picture DOES remind of a biker cop :)

Beautiful pictures, as always. The bees and the butterflies.
