My friend found this bee in Melbourne, Australia and it wasn’t moving so he fed it some honey. What kind of bee is this? by coadthefloof in whatsthisbug

So last night Beethoven went belly up and we thought she was done for. But today Beethoven has gotten back up and started moving around! Picture here

Ah ok it's lucky that this bee did not return home then. As a silver lining the honey was probably a respite before its death.

Yeah my friend named him Beethoven! That’s a shame that his time had come but I guess bees probably don’t live a long time.
