These are all so delicious, and I bet that’s exactly what them pollinators are thinking, too!

Beautiful shots with such a wonderful variety of six-legged wonders.

The violet anthers make the flowers special. Also, as stated before, many kinds of insects. Beautifully captured.

I’m not an expert, but I’m pretty sure that pictures 3 & 4 are robber flies. Robber flies aren’t really pollinators except, possibly, in the most incidental sense. They’re insect predators and are looking for pollinators to transform into delicious robber fly dinner.

Thanks for the information, you are probably right. That would be gruesome but a fascinating thing to see, but I did not have the luck.
