BEE-NORMOUS

This huge bee appeared to have been marked with a cross on the back of her thorax - perhaps she's the queen, or perhaps she had a little tracker stuck to her (if such things happen). How would you get a job like that, I wonder? Anyway she was in the wildlife garden at the bird reserve, and happily tucking into the sedums and ignoring me, although one of these days I'm sure I'm going to be stung.
