What happened to the first 4 3rd banks that they are on the 5th one?

My mom was from Cincinnati and as kids we'd always laugh at that name when we visited her family. The story I was told was that the 3rd bank merged with the 5th bank. They were going to call it the 3rd 5th bank, but it sounded like someone drinking their 3rd 5th of liquor, so they went with 5th 3rd.

If you view this full size, you can actually see the points on the pollen.

This one is my favorite from today.
These bugs live in a whole different world.

My first thought when I saw the Bumble Bee covered in pollen, was "You can't come in here looking like that!". Magnificent pics!
