Some kind of tiny bee covered in dew was sleeping on a freshly bloomed sunflower...... Even had a dew drop formed on it.... The first picture was taken after sunrise after he woke up and started drying out.

Thanks for the info! I wouldn't have known how to begin a search.Nice macro shots, Ron! I think I found an ID for your fuzzy bee, Melissodes robustior. Common name, Long Horned Bee, only the males have the long antennae. They are solitary bees, don't live in hives with others, usually in burrows. The male is known to sleep on blooms at night. Cool.
That first one looks like a soggy bee. Pretty awesome shots Ronald.
