Interesting. Almost looks like she's eating the leaf. Of course, she isn't...but that's what it LOOKS like. Without your title, I'd be at a loss.
Thanks for sharing.

A neat shot, EM. Like the bee is plotting its next move!

All the worker bees are the queen's daughters. Because of the way sex is determined in bees (Haplodiploidy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) all the worker sisters are more closely related to each other than to their mother.
