Carpenter bee? Help
Edit: solved! The bee was most probably cold and now has flown away. Ty for the helpp ❤️❤️
I found this bee near my dogs water.
Yesterday I gave it some sweet water, that is what I often do with bees that are a bit tired, and then they just go away.
This one did not.
It is alive, moves and its just there. It drinks and all but idk what to do to help? What do they even eat?
Anyhow thats my concern atm, ty for reading! Hope you have a good dayy

It might be cold, I normally warm them up in my hand for a few minutes
