Two bees

Lord Vetinari

Two bees both of which were affected by the sun disappearing behind a cloud. The miner bee felt the warmth from my fingers holding the Euphorbia flower and promptly walked on to warm up. The Cuckoo bee just stayed totally motionless whilst I shot several focus stacks.

Thanks for the comments Phil and GP

Phil - gather Melecta is a cuckoo bee on hairy footed flower bees, but you have shot Nomada bees ? - they are Cuckoo bees too.
