Brought this pretty boy back to my lab for a photo shoot. He was cooled off in the refrigerator, but released unharmed. What a beautiful male model, hey?
Sleepy bee. (For the curious, this is a male Megachile latimanus, a type of leaf-cutting bee in the family Megachilidae)
YAAWWWNNNN
“I’m ready for my close up, standingoutinmyfield.”
Look at that hair!
And those eyes!
Work it babee.
Wow! You’re an insect fashion photographer!
How’s the shoulder coming along? All the other injuries? Got a new Dragon yet?
The shoulder is okay…it healed kind of weird, but I have good range of mobility. I’m just trying to regain strength now so I’m in physical therapy. I can’t wait to swim again! I haven’t found a new Dragon yet, but I’ve started looking.
Haha yeah!
Really beeutiful bee! Is the diva ready for the runway? Seriously, the hair in this bee is something special.
He really does have great hair!
