Hi Ramachandran,

You have blue bees in Thiruvananthapuram? Awesome.

I'd really like to see a larger version of this as I think a bit of detail is pehaps being lost.

Thank you Mark.
That kind of bees are here and we see them usually in the summer (our summer is semitropical). This one was a surprise visitor. I am in the lookout for more, so that I can take a closeup to identify the beauty.
The above image has only been scaled down for ease of upload. Very slightly cropped. The original doesn't contain anything more.

I forgot to add:
Just right click the image and copy and paste the image location in to your browser's address field and click enter. That is for Windows. I don't know how to do it in Mac OS.
You can see a bigger image, but not very big.
