These are really neat looking bees. They are about a 1/4 to 1/2 inch long and this type of sweat bee is metalic looking. I'm not to fond of the OOF brown leaf in the upper left but this was the only shot from today that I liked. Plus I like the diagnal from the vein in the leaf. So just ignore the upper left corner. Hey Skippy, if I would have centered the shot I wouldn't have that annoying leaf in it. Maybe I'll try that next time :D.

    Bees, Wasps and Hornets look like aliens with helmets on sometimes to me.
