Passing by a cornfield in a very hot afternoon, over 30ΛC, I found out where bumblebees hide from the heat. It is obviously cooler between the corn leaves as the plant regulates its temperature by evaporating water from the leaf surface through vents. Plants thus reach around 20ΛC on the leaf surface. There were more bumblebees, and none of them were happy to be photographed. #nature #naturephotography #macro #macrophotography #bumblebee
