An exhausted bee that hitched a ride in a car was given sugar after the kind driver saw it struggling by his window.<br /><br />John Shepherd said he thought he needed to give the little bee some sweets to perk it up after he noticed that it looked tired.<br /><br />The insect enthusiast was driving at Todmorden, West Yorkshire, UK on July 8 when he came across the insect.<br /><br />He said: "I saw the bee on the door window of my van, just as I was about to open the door. I noticed it didn't move, so I went indoors for some sugar, with the intention of reviving him."<br /><br />He added that the bee gladly accepted the sugar bits and rested a little before it flew away.
