Thanks for the info Sym, I will do other shots to see better.Sym P. le wrote:I agree with Rik, it's a bee with a lump of dirt on it's claw. A quick google search for "bee claw" reveals that bees have a pair of double talons on each foot, i.e. four tips per foot. In this image, the orientation of the forward claw obscures the second point. With the distant claw, the clump of dirt obscures everything but the division between the two points, although I think I can see one of the points through the dirt.
