Big Ol Teddy Bear Bee

Big Ol Teddy Bear Bee by aussiegall.
I have been trying to catch a snap of one of these guys for months but they are so darn quick, my patience finally paid off today.These bees are wonderful so big and fuzzy and best of all stingless.
I have been busy for the past couple of days had a bit of a unpleasant event happen and hope to catch up on my contacts photos and leave comments in the next day or so.
