Description

Amazing expression isn’t it ? And indeed you see… a tongue ! (see the green arrow on the image below :

! the red arrow shows the jaws !!) [ taken from http://perso.orange.fr/insectes.net/xylocope/xylocop2.htm ] Tomorrow I will show you a better picture of this carpenter bee... Thank you very much for your comments on the previous upload in my microLaCoste series :

He looks to be smiling or laughing but he also looks evil, one of the devils disciple's. Fantastic macro, I have never seen a black bee. Look forward to tomorrows post. Bravo!!!!!

I've got these all over at my house and I've tried over and over to get a decent shot but being all black they haven't had any detail in them. This is a great one!
