Which of these photos was taken closer to the middle of the day? (Shadows are shorter when the sun is high above in the sky.) All
night and early
in the morning the tulip flowers are closed up. By mid day insects are out looking for pollen. Their bodies are warmed up for flight just as the tulip flower opens. They can easily see the colorful yellow and purple parts inside the tulip flower. Insects visiting the flowers help to pollinate the tulip. Perfect timing!
