A bee resting by biting on the anther of Pichira macrocarpa (Bombacaceae). Both dorsata and cerana forage on this plant by hovering and collect pollen. Hoving must be very tiring because you bees taking rests on leaves. This bee becomes smart and is taking a rest on the job. Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China. April 2002.
