The great photos were taken by Rick Lieder, who has a great site at http://www.bugdreams.com  that is dedicated to wildlife photography. He has some great pictures there and has an entire bee gallery at http://www.beedreams.com/ definitely worth checking out. Spectacular images of mosquitoes, birds, and bugs! He has some amazing stuff so be sure to browse around.
