Hi @agmoore π
Wow. I love your animations! So also this one, of course. They are always so lovingly crafted and with attention to detail. :-)
The swarming bees look very realistic. And the scene has a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere. It's fun to watch the activity.
Trully a beautyfull collage. π
I'm sorry to read you were stung by a bee. And I hope the pain has gone away quickly.
It's always doubly bad because most of the cases a bee sting is the result of a fatal and very last misjudgement made by the bee.
I'm glad your post had an educational part this time too. Because it was completely new to me that wasps might have the ability to recognise human faces.
Mind-blowing and fascinating!
Have a nice weekend, @agmoore π€
Hello my friend, @quantumg!
You are kind. I love making the still collages and the animations. My husband encourages me to make, as he puts it, 'a GIF'. He finds them interesting. I'm very happy you feel it worked out well with those frantic bees π
My sting wasn't that bad. I think she (the wasp) mostly got my glove. Hydrocortisone applied immediately helped to keep the swelling down. Also, since it was a wasp, there was no death scene. They get to sting over and over again until they run out of venom (do they run out of venom? I can't imagine it's an endless supply. Plus, I wonder if it doesn't use up precious energy to be stinging someone. I feel a science blog coming onπ.)
I was astonished also to learn that a wasp can remember us--up a to a week after stinging, I've read. We do underestimate the other creatures on the planet, don't we?
Kind of you to stop by and encourage me in my collage making. I've learned a lot from you--a lot more to go.
I hope you, your wife and Frieda have a most wonderful summer weekend.
Warm regards to the three of youπ
