Think this is supposed to be to help concentrate the nectar- first time I've caught a bee doing it. The animation may take some time to load.

Thanks Alan :)
I'd been told that bees do this but never seen it before it. Given up wondering how much pollen these things can carry :)

you must share with us how you animated the bee! What type of file did you save it as? Did you do this in PS CS?

Hiya Brian,
That's a nice capture, like the animation, I must show the wife ( Ami ) this & perhaps she'll understand why I do this whilst eating, I've tried telling her that her soups to watery, lol.
Cheers for now

Very easy to do- the file is an animated GIF- just import the sequence (pre aligned in photoshop) into adobe imageready or similar gif animation prog- adjust the timing , adjust the size to something reasonable and away you go.
