•  Info I fixed the nom, but you will want to be more specific on the category. - Benh (talk) 09:53, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
•  Comment Thanks Benh, and I agree, we need to know what kind of bee it is and preferably what flower it is too. An FP is not just the photo, it is also all the information about it so it can be used in the right articles and other places. --Cart (talk) 12:10, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

• I updated the caption. It is a European bee (Apis mellifera) extracting nectar from a Maonia flower - Mahonia aquifolium using its trunk. Small hairs that cover the bee's body maintain a slight electrostatic charge, causing pollen from the flower's anthers to stick to the bee, allowing pollination when the bee moves to another flower.

•  Oppose - I'd support this for QI, but I don't find anything great about the composition, so no support for FP. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:26, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
