Sugar solution mystery?

After finding quite a few dead bees in the garden
Made a solution of brown sugar and water poured it into a shallow coaster. Placed it on a Flower high rock.
Thinking to give Bumble bees an easy energy drink. Didn't see a beastie of any description go near it.

Forget about it and left it out overnight. Although it was precariously balance on a rock. Sometime during the night the solution had been completely consumed, the coaster wasn't even the least bit sticky.
Nor had it moved.
What mysterious beastie of the night might have slurp it up?
