On the underside of the compost bin found this cutie. Quite large up to almost everything else in the garden.

This small bee flew between sunning itself on a tree trunk and nibbling at the leaves. Any ID would be appreciated.

Lovely shots, Bas, especially the first one. Can't help out with ID on bee.

Not a clue on the Bee. Brian will probably know.

Excellent images though. The spider is superb.

Excellent captures, Bas! Nice sharp detail on all. I think the bee is actually a robber fly!

Thank you Ian, George, JD and Dolan. Much appreciated.
I wish I could get a better shot for ID of the bee/robber.
