[Pollinator] Apis Stowaway

[Michael Roswell]

Hi all,

Thanks very much for the fun responses to the last honey bee query we 
got in the Winfree lab. A photographer sent the following to the lab 
last week:

I am rather curious if you have ever observed the behavior shown in this 
photo. I am a retired HS science teacher who takes macro at arboretums. 
I have a second shot that isn't as clear but, there is no question that 
this insect is latched on to the pollen sac on the bees rear leg.
Thanks

We're all curious too! Sending two messages because the files are large.

Thanks,

Michael Roswell
