It's a portrait photo in 16:9 format, so tall and thin. The right hand side of the frame bisects the bees face, head on. He has an orange, and pale yellow hairy face with dark black jaw. At the top of his head the hairs are less dense showing his occilli, small little light sensors that help him understand what's going on around him. His eye is like an elongated hemisphere, made up of lots of tiny lenses which are just about clear. It is framed on its left hand side by the hairs at the back of his head, giving it an impression of wearing a furry head dress. Slightly furhter out the dark black foreleg is just in focus as it is folded back underneath his body.
Trying to distract myself from all the💩going on in the world, so took some more photos of Eric. He lost his left antenna in storage so I framed things a bit differently. Will tuck him away now, and try something different. #solitarybees #wildlifefrommywindow #invertebrates #ukwildlife #photostack
