Some kind of little bee I don't feel like looking up. ;) It's on a bearded iris petal.

[PDF] How To Construct a Study, All Wood #MasonBee House
by Don Harper
"The construction method described below is based on a presentation made by Lawrence County Master Gardener Dave Hughes in 2007. The construction process can obviously be modified, depending on the availability of power
tools and the preference for using one piece of 4x6 wood instead of two pieces of 2x6. Construction, once you are
familiar with the process, requires about a day. Waiting for glue to dry is the only part of the process that really slows
down construction."Given the diminution of populations of honeybees due to colony collapse disorder, it is hoped that everyone with a
garden will make at least one of these houses available for mason bees in which to lay eggs. This will lead to the next generation of bees, and over time increase the population of these #NativePollinators."Learn more:

"#NativePlant corridors attract #pollinators and #wildlife to your farm by stretching across your property to connect your piece of #NativeHabitat to nearby #meadows, #wetlands or #woodlands. This creates a much larger area for #NativePollinators to #forage, raise young and migrate. Corridors may run along a road, between fields, in a #swale or on the edge of a #forest, connecting habitats off the property and returning native plants to the parts of the farm not suitable for traditional crops.
This article describes two approaches to creating native habitat corridors: changing #mowing habits to favor native species, and planting woody and herbaceous combinations to increase native plant diversity on the farm.
Populations of all native species are in decline across the state. Our human footprint is taking its toll on wild creatures, including pollinators such as #bees and #butterflies that are so important on the farm for crop pollination. Native plant species each share an evolutionary history with indigenous insects, birds, reptiles, mammals, bacteria and fungi. When native plants are gone, many of these creatures go too, leading to a collapse of ecosystem function. Farmers benefit from the services provided by a healthy ecosystem, such as groundwater recharge; clean surface streams and ponds; pollination; a diversity of birds, spiders and amphibians to eat many insects including crop pests; and beneficial soil fungi and bacteria. Fortunately, when native plants are reintroduced into a landscape, many of these other creatures return.
As farmers and landowners, we can bring native plants, and the attendant diversity, back into the Maine landscape in a way that works with a farmer’s busy schedule. Many native plants thrive in dry, wet and shady areas that are poor sites for traditional farm crops."

Bombus on the tall sunflower. I see a lot of pollen coming off of it too with all the yellow specks on the leaf below it.

One of the neat things about heightening my focus towards life around me, even the smallest of insects, is that when I pause to observe one thing, my stillness often invites others to move into frame.
In this case a sutured longhorn beetle caught my attention and then a ligated furrow bee stopped by.
