[edit] Bloom photo with bee

Hello. I thought this photo may interest the maintainers of this page. The article mentions pollination by solitary bees and the insect seen here may be such. I thought it may be in bad form to insert photos into talk pages so I left the file name unbracketed. Please have a look and use it if you like.

Nice photo! It would be good to have information on the image description page about the location where the photo was taken, and confirmation of the name of the species (if known). It's also best to upload the image to commons adding it to the page commons:Opuntia engelmannii if you're confident of the species identification or putting it in commons:Category:Unidentified Opuntia if you're not.
