A question for you bee experts here. Are their eyes like a spiders? Or are all the extra "eyes" I see just a mimic of some sort?

After a google search I found this is a sweat bee? I don't remember exactly but I don't think the things we called sweat bees growing up looked like this. Surely something that looks this cool has got to have a cooler name than "sweat bee"? :-)

Nope, it's a type of Seat Bee -thousands of different species. Envious of anyone who lives in an area with the metallic ones. Mine look ordinary in comparison.
