Blue Banded Bees.
Out in our garden today,and could not help but having a go at attempting to photograph these lovely blue banded bees,they are very fast!
The first two images show an older specimen,in image two we can see how he has used his probiscus to cut into the flower-note the cut mark near the bee's top left leg.
Image three is a freshly emerged specimen,his throax is a lovely bright orange.
Hope these are of interest,thanks for looking,Chris
