      Queen bees have long abdomen like this, but it would be rare if ever to see a queen pollinating like that. Once they start laying eggs they are too heavy to fly. I would 90% guess it’s a type of bee that I doing know, 10% it’s a queen bee

      Now that you comment on that I thought it was maybe perspective, but all other shots show that looooong abdomen as well. Fingers crossed it means lots of honey for the hive.
