Vibrance at its best

[Prajwal J Ullal]

Was busy clicking the amazing surrounding at Mangalore when I spotted a really vibrant bee moving around. After approaching it for sometime it sat on the Neem's flowers and at that moment captured this snap.

ID help also needed for the bee

A very colourful bee. I think the bee is slightly underexposed, so it would have been fine if you had not given the -1/3 EC. The white and violet flowers look nice. Thanks for sharing.

This is a Euchromia moth, commonly known as a tiger moth or handmaiden moth. Its day-flying habits and preference to plants might resemble those of a bee. Nice colours.
