Xylocopa caerulea, the Blue Carpenter Bee. Xylocopa caerulea is a relatively large species, reaching an average size of 23 millimetres (0.91 in). The thorax region of these insects are covered with light blue hairs, giving it a striking blue colour. The sides of the abdomen and first abdominal segments are also covered by similar, albeit a finer and thinner coat of blue hairs. This species is widely distributed in Southeast Asia, India and Southern China

Adam cut Bhk’s lawn into a giant birthday card! I stitched it the best I could, but seeing it in person is much more impressive! (From 2006 – Thanks, Adam!)
Allison still isn’t sure which birthday wheel she would like. NO RUSH. 😚 #spinning #catsofinstagram #fluffy #black #orange #tabby #newton #pyewacket #timehop
