These were quite small bees but I do not know their names, so if you do know, I would not mind knowing also. :)

Cool work. I want some subjects to practice on (and the holiday rain to stop).

A wonderful series of images Ishrani. Lovely soft lighting.

I'm going to hazard a guess at a Miner bee (because it looks very much like the one I got yesterday :D )

Beautiful captures, if that Bee was in the UK I would say it is a Melecta albifrons, which is a type of Cuckoo Bee. :)

Last one looks like it might be Sphecodes monilicornis or at least the same family.
