Species: Stingless Bees | Location: Pico Bonito National Park, Honduras

Completely harmless, these stingless bees were found tending their hive just outside of my cabin in the rain forests of Central America.  Armed with a macro lens, even something the size of a quarter can turn into something quite grand!
