Baby ? - you don't get baby bees - full size when born.

Thanks for the clarification. Looked like a baby. Very tiny.

Guessing it was a miner bee or sweat bee- some are very small

Cool photo!

Lots of different solitary bees, in all shapes and sizes. There's a species out at my mother in law's farm that's all of 4mm long...

Thanks John. It is getting warm here so a lot of activity. Too bad I am so tired in the mornings...

I shoot them on the way to work cause it's just not possible to get close to some of them in the hear of the day

That might be worth a try. Will start doing that! Thanks!
