Pollination. This Bumble bee (Bombus sp.) is pollinating a flower. As the bee sucks nectar from the flower,it rubs against the stamens - picking up grains of pollen. Each pollen grain contains a male gamete which,when deposited on another plant of the same species,can fertilise an ovule and produce seeds. Photographed in Maryland,USA | |
