A cold pollenated bumble bee

Spotted this bumble bee one morning with it's bum sticking out of a closed hollyhock flower. I gently unwrapped it, but it felt the warmth of my fingers and climbed on. I eventually tried putting back into a flower, it stayed about 5 seconds and came back out onto my hand. I let it warm up some more and it eventually flew off. 5Dmk2/MPE-65/430Ex flash. Shots are focus stacked using zerene except the last one.
