The burrowing bees are so cute. They'll sit right at the entrance of their holes and, when you pass by, immediately retreat. However if you wait patiently they'll come back up again.
I thought I also saw immense bees buzzing around, but they turned out to be furry scarab beetles of some kind!

Lançaram um #livro gratuito (@creativecommons BY-NC-ND 4.0) para identificação de #abelhas de Portugal. Por cá existem 750 espécies de 🐝.
"será extremamente útil não só para investigadores que trabalham no estudo e conservação de polinizadores, mas também para estudantes, naturalistas e para todos os que tiverem interesse em aprender sobre a identificação de abelhas"

Stopped by Christie Pits on my way back from a dentist appointment today. Wasn't really expecting to find much given how much foot traffic and how little "wild" space there is, but to my astonishment there were a few different kinds of bees making burrows in sandy patches on the sunny hillside!
There were fluffy white-and-black mining bees (skittish, hard to get photos) and smaller, more docile metallic olive-green sweat bees.

Our largest #bee, the Eastern carpenter #Bee (#Xylocopa verginica ssp. virginica) is well-known to those in proximity to outdoor wooden structures. Females carve out long tunnels underneath protected wood, e.g. porch rails, eaves.
Males emerge first in Spring. Territorial, they will fly right at you! Harmless to us.

Happy #InverteFest2022!
Most of my #iNaturalist observations, and much of my #Photography, are of #Insects, especially #FlowerVisitors/"#Pollinators". (Not all who visit, pollinate. Some are hunting!)
In the spirit of the season, I'll share some fave #Macro #Photos.
My most frequently observed #Species is #Bombus impatiens, the Eastern bumble #Bee.
