I would not like to meet that guy in a dark alley.
Neat capture.

Thank you. No worries about the dark alley. If you meet that *girl* it
will likely be in broad daylight. She carries a nasty sting, and unlike
a honeybee, can sting repeatedly. The good news is that, like most
wasps, she is not particularly aggressive unless she feels threatened.
The bad news is that we don't always know what "threatened" means to
her.

Just don't fondle her butt.


This time of year the bees get so drunk on pollen, that yo can safely
pet them. I've seen guys doing it, but that is not for me.

Indeed she is. She is a really nice person and a model. I took her in a
studio and made a composite with a graffiti wall. I added the blurs in
photoshop.

Of course you did. I wouldn't expect less from you.

Bzzzzzt! Wrong answer. There are no intoxicants in pollen or nectar.
Besides, it's getting a bit late in the season (in the northern
hemisphere) for Apis mellifera to gather pollen. They are starting to
eat the honey that they made earlier in the year from nectar that they
gathered.

I don't know that bees get drunk, that would require the honey be
fermented first (Mead). I have seen wasps (the insect) gorging on
grapes that had been left on the ground for a few days...

"Pollen", I mean that she has not gathered any pollen on her back legs like
you see normally.

Perhaps drunk was a bit of hyperbole, but the certainly seem to ace drowsy.
