The injured bee

A little while ago I was in the back yard and I found this injured carpenter bee. They like to burrow into trees and houses, and they are fiercely territorial whenever they encounter each other. I'm guessing that is what happened to this bee; he encountered another carpenter bee and got severely injured. One of his wings is missing, and he was acting sluggish. I'm guessing his behavior was because he was close to death. Poor bee.

When I found the bee I took some pictures, but then I carefully placed him in some low-level brush so he could die peacefully.

















Good-bye, Bee. I hope you are in Bee Heaven buzzing around and burrowing in trees.
