Green sweat bee feeds upon a bright yellow tickseed coreopsis.
Sweat bees are some of the only bees that can buzz-pollinate, meaning the bee grabs the anther of the flower in its mouthparts, curls its abdomen around the anther, and vibrates its wing muscles, causing the anther to release its pollen. (Photo by Will Parson/Chesapeake Bay Program)
