Bumble Bees (Bombus) - 05a
(Bumble Bees (Bombus) - 05a) This is a close up of the bumble bee with wings blurred like a helicopter rotor.  Note the extended tongue of the bee, as it prepared to insert it into a lilac flower.  Like all bee tongues, the bumble bee tongue (the proboscis) is composed of many different mouthparts acting as a unit, specialized to suck up nectar via capillary action. At rest or when flying the proboscis is kept folded under the head.

lamb-right lamb-left Presented here are just a few of the countless components of God's creation.  Just as we cannot have human and animal life without water and plants, neither can we have lasting peace without love and compassion.  It is our hope and prayer that this series will motivate people to live and act in a cruelty-free manner; that we would no longer hurt or destroy each other, the animals or our environment.
