An exhausted bumblebee
And they said working hard is good for you.
It's not all fun and cuteness in the bumblebee world. This poor bumblebee was at the end of its tether, and I suppose the mites didn't help either:
Olympus Stylus 1s, 42mm, ISO200, f4, 1/160s
Poor creature. You've capture the moment very well.
Thank you.
That is one worn out looking bee. Very nice photo, and homage to the end of it's life.

Poor bee. Great job at communicating a story through just one image!
Thank you!
Very nice, I also today took a picture of the bumblebee! :)
He looks exhausted. The detailing...the hairs, the eyes..great shot.
It's terrible they are dying off. Cool photo though. Please take a look at mine when you can. Thanks!
