Descrission:

Description: Another view showing how this bee crawls to the base of the flower and bores into the base to get at the nectar. I suspect a hummingbird would have no problem getting nectar through the funnel shaped flower. Made Explore for a few hours - Highest position: 461 on Sunday, May 31, 2015. Date: 29 May 2015, 15:14.
