Arvin, really, really nice closeups of these gals, wow!!! Yes, they are hairy, that is depictive of the Carniolan bee. I am pretty sure there are other races that are hairy too, but the Carniolan have been nicknamed "the hairy bee". Now nice. Thank you for sharing, bring on some more, hee, hee. Have the best of this beautiful and wonderful day, Cindi
