This beautiful little bee showed up right at my window a few days ago. I'm not exactly sure of its species, but I found it incredibly gorgeous! Ignore my dirty window, pls.

It was all covered in pollen and looked almost a bit 'drunk,' poor thing. Haha! I guess this bee had a pretty productive day, right?!

I couldn't miss the chance to capture this moment up close. It's also worth remembering that bees are extremely important to our ecosystem, and we should never harm them. It's fascinating how such tiny beings can carry such a huge responsibility for the balance of our planet.

Essa abelhinha linda apareceu bem na minha janela há alguns dias atrás. Não sei exatamente qual é o gênero dela, mas achei extremamente linda! Ignorem a janela suja, pfvr.

Ela estava toda sujinha de pólen e parecia até um pouco 'bêbada', coitadinha. hahaha Acho que o dia dessa abelha tinha sido bem produtivo, né?!

Não perdi a chance de registrar, bem de pertinho, esse momento. Vale lembrar também que as abelhas são super importantes para o ecossistema e jamais devemos matá-las. É fascinante como seres tão minúsculos podem carregar um peso tão grande para o equilíbrio do nosso planeta.

A primeira imagem desse post é minha participação @PhotoFeed Contest, com o tema Macro Fotografia, no round 91.

If you see bees that look like they're a bit exhausted and slow (sometimes it's quite clear with how they stop flying entirely and just slowly walk around), you can mix a bit of water with sugar and give it to them. They'll drink it up and get energised again within a minute. You have to be careful giving them honey though as it can contain diseases from other Hives that bees will then take back to the hive.

They're quite thankful for it too ;^)

Wow, I had no idea about this! Right after I took these photos, I carefully picked it up with a piece of paper and took it to my plants. I haven’t seen it since… I think it recovered and went on its way 🙏

The way you took these pictures, this bee looks so big and beautiful! :)

Abelhinha da Hive :D

Excellent capture on the bee @xlety!!!
Just for information all worker bees are female and the only other female is the Queen, who does all the breeding. The worker bees only live average between 4 to 6 weeks, then they die. There are some that will live a little bit longer in the winter inside the hive.
Males are called Drones, and their entire existence is to service the queen, which is usually between 50 and 150 feet off of the ground, and is a queen not from his hive. When the male has exhausted everything, his tool is usually ripped off of him and he dies.
The males who never make it to serve the queen get kicked out of the hive just before winter in order to keep the limited food supply available for the ladies. lol
