This photo was taken in high summer, I haven’t seen any metallic bees in a while. The season is certainly winding down.
This male bee has an attractive striped abdomen while the female is completely green.

Haven’t seen any in a while here either. It was good while it lasted. They are gorgeous creatures. Nice side view, Belinda.

We’ve seen a few more bees this year than last, but they apparently have been very busy bees because we haven’t seen any “posing” as nicely as this one!

Nice capture, Belinda. I love seeing solitary bees. Same here, haven’t seen them in a while. I guess once they lay their eggs for next year, they are done.

I have a couple of shots of these bees but, like you, haven’t seen one in an age.
As the summer begins I hope we’ll have a few visitors this year.
