I was cleaning my pond filter when a bee flew by and got knocked down by the water. I picked it up and set it on a dry spot with temp in the 50s and cloudy. After 30 minutes, it was still there, barely moving.

I tried to warm it up by letting it sit on my hand and using a heat gun on the lowest setting, really gentle, not even as warm as a typical hair dryer. Once it dried off and warmed up, it started grooming itself. Eventually it flew away.
