today at my way back home, i stopped next to a Datura Plant, then in a split of a second i saw this bumblebee stepping out of the Datura flower.
I call this Lucky Photo
Here are some more photographs from the Datura Flower.

i guess bees help us all, there is a problem world wide with bees communities are vanished. if bees disappear, no more love for flowers :(
this called "Colony Collapse Disorder" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colony_Collapse_Disorder
i add to the article some photographs of the datura ( very poison fruits / seeds he has ).
it grows all along the river sides, the flowers are so tempting.
i was sure that the grass tread was photo outside in wild :)
