Davies' Colletes Bee

I make an attempt to photograph, identify and record all the different bee species that visit our Staffordshire garden. I don't see many "new" species these days, but this species started appearing in July 2026. It's one of the Colletes species; possibly Colletes daviesanus. Like with many insects, identification from photographs can be difficult.I make an attempt to photograph, identify and record all the different bee species that visit our Staffordshire garden.
