Wet miner bee rescue

Lord Vetinari

Found this miner bee swimming about in the bucket of waste water whilst I was doing a partial water change on my tropical fish tank. Not sure but assume it must have been sitting on the watering can of fresh water. Anyway rescued it on my finger and let it dry out there. Quite hard to grab and setup a camera with a bee on your finger

Great rescue Brian,

and a steady finger to get this perfect in focus

Thanks Ronny,

Not that steady - sit on door step, rest arm on knee and then rest camera lens on the same arm/hand

Beautiful lighting for me too Brian. I near seem to get my light as smooth as yours. That's down to my gear, but newer gear probably wouldn't stand up against your quality work!
