For those who do not know:- THIS is a Beehind!!
The bee was adamant to collect pollen from an Aloe floret that had not yet opened.
It tried from all sides - spinning from side to side until it managed to pry the petals apart.
Breakfast served and pollen sacs filled!

    I have also noticed how persistent they are even when the aloe florets are still closed. I guess they can smell the fact that the pollen is ready for 'harvesting'. Great shot.
