On our campus I've seen a few of these very vivid little solitary bees feeding off rock cranesbill and rosemary., while at home I sometimes see one inspecting my walls for a suitable nest hole in the brickwork.
They are fast moving and hard to photograph; the ones that visit my garden never stop for a second, but when they are feeding you have a chance if 1 you are very quick, and 2, very lucky.
Emphasis on the very lucky.
I hope you too have seen some interesting insects during this fine dry weather.

Great photos as always. I would say luck was on your side. Regards Sue H
ReplyDeleteThe bee is fascinating but I admire especially the flowers in your photos. :)
ReplyDeleteHere in Eastern Finland, we are seeing especially the first bumblebees and some butterflies. Spring has finally come.
Have a great weekend!
