Hi friends of the #NatureObserver Community wherever you are, how are you today? Hopefully all friends are fine and can always carry out their activities smoothly every day.

This time I am sharing a picture of a large insect which is also often called a carpenter bee. Yesterday, as usual, I was looking for objects to photograph in a garden full of wild plants, suddenly a fairly large carpenter bee flew in front of me and landed on a flower that was in bloom. This carpenter bee is always moving so it's a bit difficult to photograph it, but I still managed to take a few pictures before the bee felt disturbed and flew off to another place.

A large insect, black in color and its body is covered with small hairs. Very beautiful and attractive.
