The bee that is seen here was rolling about in the cactus flower the same way some dogs roll on their backs when they just have to scratch that itch…this was one happy bee, wriggling about in a perfect bed of pollen…

From Joseph Campbell:

The Navaho say, “Oh, beauty before me, beauty behind me, beauty to the right of me, beauty to the left of me, beauty above me, beauty below me, I’m on the pollen path.”
