Couple of shots of some of my favourite bees which turned up in the garden recently. All have been focus stacked using zerene.

Thanks Harold - they are lovely looking bees.
You need miner bees in the garden to get the nomada bees.

Beauties ... It can be a job attracting bees, and keeping them. So much has to be right, some are lucky too.

Wonderful set Brian

Mason bees are also at the top of my list. Funny how the male is one of the most photogenic bees and the female is one of the ugliest. I have a small population of them nesting in a dead tree in my back yard. After the limbs were cut they tunneled into the soft core.

Thanks Mark and John for the comments - appreciated.

John - yes the female red mason bee is not very beautiful with those two mud tamping horns on her face.
