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!

#Colletes thoracicus, rufous-chested #CellophaneBee (#Colletidae) is another #Bee species making its home in my #Garden. Ground-nesters, each generation lives just one year. I've tracked this population since 2008, 14 generations!
