Very close! But regratably is the DOF very shallow, or may be a little-little bit out focus. The flower seems a bit sharper.

But overall a good photo, because the working space with dof is minimal!!!

Well done, greet Flip

Thanks Fillip,
I do agree with you - I missed DOF here. As I remember it was one of those fast decision making moments - I had no flash on and tried to use all the light I could get. I could not go below 1/80 when the bee was always moving and buzzing around. The f/3.6 at this distance is very shallow indeed.
