i have these lovely drought resistant (it hasn't rained in a month and a half) native plants sustaining solitary bees (there are species that don't have hives). they cling to the flowers like this in the evening instead of flying off n you can just pet them n sing them to sleep.

Random assortment of landscapes and shite from some of my work trips.
First Altafjord taken south-east of Alta, just short of 70° North, taken last summer.
For some reason every fucking tourist in the area was fucking up the landscape by building shitty cairns.

Nature trail near my lodgings in Kirkenes this spring. Everything was basically brown as the trees had just started budding.

Ratlicker safety moose from the coastal express terminal souvenir shop in Kirkenes.
The sort of thing that would land Quence or Tim in jail over night for going apeshit in public.

My grotty grill setup on a rest stop by a little pond a stones throw from the soviet border.
Was going to go right up to the border, but there was some construction going on - laying down explosives under the road bed for all I know.

For some reason we don't seem to have any "proper" bees around where I live, only bumbling bumblebees in a couple of similar models and a dozen varieties of wasp that loves nothing more than to invade your personal space and crawl on your skin.

Who would want to pet a bee? I got stung by that shit twice by those fuckers and it hurt

Carpenter bees are cool except when they buzz inches away from your face.

You pet bees when they're pollenating a plant since they're too focused on collecting the pollen to care about you touching them. I can proudly exclaim that I have touched many bees, I enjoyed it very much each time.
