A member of the 🐝Team Sintti Air Force🐝 after falling in to a deep water bowl... not at all round and fluffy looking bumblebee when its soaked in water ! Luckily, I was around to give this little guy a helping hand and he climbed on my finger and to safety.
Since I set up a honey water bar for them, these incidents have fortunately almost stopped - only a few per week now.
I have discovered an interesting thing about bumblebees; they actually shake themselves dry, much like a cat or a dog would do. No sound, not even quite visible, but you can feel it in your hand and it´s an absolutely fantastic sensation !!! Very hard to describe, but imagine a phone on vibrate against your skin - something like that, only milder.
The only thing that´s slightly annoying (yet funny too) is that these guys tend to use my arms as a drying platform. Almost every time this happens they start prancing up and down my arm without any intention to fly away.*.. silly little things ! 😊
Might have something to do with body warmth, I really don´t know. Still, it´s kinda cool.

*Maybe they just adore my freckles ! 🤣🤣🤣
