This Bud's for you!

I had just finished a beer when a bee flew into the cabin and landed on the bottle. Before I could get the camera set up it had crawed into the bottle and was swimming in the little bit of beer left in the bottom. I then turned the bottle on it's side and waited. The bee did eventually sober up and fly off.

The lighting could be a bit better. Sharp lens, though.

Incredible detail on the bee...nice capture.

You're right Gregory, they were too dark (lighter now). That's what I get for doing post production on my laptop. Thanks for the heads-up.

Thank you!

Great shots, seen wasps do this but not bees .

well, that one way to get Bugs in your Beer. Great captures.

Thanks Brian and BE. I like how this worked out. Have a beer and let the bugs come to you.

I hope it was a Bud LIght? I'd hate to see you letting a mate drink and fly

Yes it was a BL, but when you're swimming in the stuff does the alcohol percentage really matter all that much?

PS I didn't LET him drink and fly. He snuck off when I wasn't looking.

Should have clipped his wings. I hope he made it to the hive in one piece or didnt get picked up for FUI (flying under the influence)
