He’s well camouflaged. Nature is fascinating. Great shots.

Thanks. It was the first time I've found a nest site. A dozen or so holes in an are about 2 sq. ft.

Thanks for commenting and very happy the link is clicked and read!
The dwarf bees fly fast. I noticed they may stay longer on a flower once landed compared with the common honey bees.
