Hi to all,

Again, something else I have not observed before:

Bees emerging from the cell abdomen first.

Before some person asks, the cells were still capped in a manner that 
indicates that it was not some mis-directed adult becoming trapped head 
first. Also the "attitude" and hairiness of the individuals was such as 
to indicate a bee that was emerging for the first time.

Observed approx. 5 individuals during the short period (5 mins. - time 
passes so quickly watching bees.

Any other observed this ?

Regards,

Peter
