The Great Bee Rescue - (Apis mellifera) Apidae

We have been having nothing else but rain for nearly three days now. I found this little fellow drowining in a puddle outside my office door.

So I gave him a finger to climb onto....

but he kept on nearly falling off....
He eventuall managed to drag himself onto dry hand....(LOL!!)

..and sat there, totally exhausted!!! (sorry this is not a good pic)
