    I find it quite difficult to photograph Honeybees. They are relatively fast feeders so they don't stick around on a flower for too long, and they just don't have anything special to highlight. I suppose I could play around with the lighting next time.

    Here's one sharing the same flower as a small carpenter bee.

    A Honey bee on a flower with a carpenter bee that is less than half its size. The carpenter bee is smooth, black with thin yellow stripes. The honey bee is  fuzzy on its thorax, with wide yellow and black stripes on its abdomen, on its leg is a large bunch of pollen trapped in its pollen basket hairs.
