Very Cool! I'm surprised noone has replied to this thread.
Really reminds me of a bee.

Well, I'm a bit of an orchid nut, and I do want to see these in the wild some day. The flowers show a bewildering variety of shapes and colors are indeed very unusual. They do not grow naturally in North America, so I'd have to go to Europe to see them. Maybe one of these days... Thanks for posting this great shot.
