When i was younger I found a bee on the window ledge, it wasn't moving much so I thought it must be dying. I didn't want it to die so I thought I'd try to revive it. I did this by scooping it up onto a leaf and putting it at the top of the garden on a rock with a big spoonful of honey next to it, thinking that it would eat the honey and feel better! When I came back to it later it was gone (probably eaten by a bird or somehitng), oblivious to the fact that I'd left a dying and virtually helpless creature in such an exposed place I was very pleased with myself for being so kind and helpful!
