Neon Cuckoo Bee (Tyreus) on Twig

in Beauty of Creativity6 days ago

So, this is a fascinating bee that I found somewhere around the bush, called Neon Cuckoo Bee is a parasitic bee of the genus Thyreus. It is a stocky bee, notable for its brilliant metallic blue- and black-banded colors. Among many insects, the bee is my favorite one! I say this because in taking bee, I must do extra effort as it is a type of insect that moves quite a lot and it challenged me so badly, especially when taking the headshot. I considered this challenge as a pleasant job so whenever I found bees, I manage to hunt them down. Sometimes I failed to catch but some other time I successfully captured them. While being on the shot, I never thought that they would sting me, and thank for being friendly with me. There are many types of bees around here, and I think this bee is more friendly than others. Indeed, I had to spend much time hunting and waiting for them to calm, that was the efforts to gain better results.
