#philanthus — Public Fediverse posts

The same species, hump-backed #beewolf (#Philanthus gibbosus) is common in my garden every summer, July through September. In some years, I've seen them as early as June, and as late as October. They visit a wide variety of flowers, preferring #Asteraceae and #Lamiaceae.
