Rock Bee

Apis dorsata

Description:

A really big honey bee.

Habitat:

Gardens

Notes:

I think it is a giant bee or the rock bee. Although not very sure. Found some info on : http://agritech.tnau.ac.in/apiculture/fe....
Never seen one this close ever! He seemed to stick to his norms of being busy as usual. He did buzz around me a little and decided not to be bothered with a little bit of lense intrusion :)
