Old World Thyreus part 2

The light blue bee or experts claim it as Thyreus comes from the old world, is one of the very rare bees seen in our area, but I don't know if it's like that in your area too, is one of the many photos of the old remains or about 14 days ago, in that post several things were explained about them.

As in the previous post, any photos that have been uploaded in my posts, and which have been posted in one of the #stockimage communities, can be taken by anyone, as long as they are already part of the Hive.blog community.

To my friends, who have become part of hive.blog, you can take some of these pictures, as long as they comply with the rules set by the leader of hive.blog.

If you ask and examine why the photos are almost the same, it means that these photos are the rest of the photos this month, or about 14 days ago. However, there are also slight differences in some of the photos.

^Goal

So with that, the meaning of that, it can be concluded that, this purpose is only to clean up my already full gallery, when looking at the history of 14 days ago then I get some very good (in my opinion) image remnants, and when I see a rare bee this, and on this occasion these photos, are published.

^{Explanation of Thyreus or Old World bee}

In my entire life, or since I joined a local research team, in our area, I have never come across this particular species. Or it can be concluded that it is a rare species, so it is appropriate for friends from the research team or experts in the field of zoology to call it an Old World Thyreus bee, it is only natural that this species is very rarely found.

Meanwhile, their character when they were on the marigold flower, and watched it for more than 2 hours, still looks and has the same character as other bees in general. The general characters that are similar to ordinary bees in general are as will be mentioned below.

1. ^{They still choose any petals that have nectar, and often or always choose flowers that have contrasting colors. This is known based on the observer manually. For more than two hours, seeing the conditions, while in their natural habitat, these bees always choose flowers that have attractive colors or look contrasting, although around their small habitat there are also other wild flowers that have sufficient nectar. However, they prefer or linger on yellow and contrasting flowers or marygold flowers, in consuming flower nectar.}

2 ^{Do not want to join other bee species or ordinary bees in general, although in this post it looks light blue, but there are also other species that are still in the same genus or are silver. But it's a bit difficult to get a photo because the silver one is very aggressive and very sensitive to reading situations or difficult to approach, if forced to approach it will automatically avoid every movement of someone in accepting a new situation.}

3 ^{Whether it has a colony or not, like honey bees in general, does not yet have accurate information, because when it found it there were two tails, one was silver and the other was light blue. To this day, I myself am still tracking its development, coincidentally, its existence is very easy to reach, namely in a small habitat yard in our area.}

His behavior spends a lot of time in a group of flowers of his choice, and when they are in one petal they will linger on it. You yourself can notice several activities in an ornamental plant, as seen below. Here are the pictures.

concerning their behavior which is not yet known and is still under certain scrutiny by a local team, perhaps within the next month, at least having some accurate information about them.

Although in certain media, it has been told about its character, of course from observations, but we cannot say further, before getting accurate information from the hard work of our local team. Hopefully useful for all of us, of course in a scientific insight. Thank you very much.
