Spined Soldier Bug With Breakfast. I had no idea there was such a thing as a predatory stink bug. I thought all stink bugs were all so-called "pests," eating your plants willy-nilly. Turns out, this little carnivorous gaffer would like to dine on your pesty larvae, if you could kindly offer him a little shelter. #bug #stinkbugs #beneficialinsects #insect #pollinator #nature #naturephotography #natureshots #wildlife #wildlifephotography #invertebrate #furrowbee #macro #macrophotography #larva #macrophotographie #smallworld #garden

Furrow Bee
I think she overshot in the imbibing and pollen loading, because she seemed to be in a rather snoozy state, allowing me to take 18 stackable macro shots freehand. #bee #sweatbee #insect #pollinator #nature #naturephotography #natureshots #wildlife #wildlifephotography #insect #invertebrate #furrowbee #macro #macrophotography #macrophotographie #smallworld #wildflowers

I was trying to get a photo of the little bees after I took photos of this big bumble bee but wasn't successful but I see I got a good picture of one with the bumblebee. I think it's a Ligated Furrow Bee minus it's usual coating of pollen but it has a little bit stuck to it. The big ones is a Brown-belted Bumble Bee Bombus griseocollis I think.

Probably some kind of furrow bee, Genus Halictus, on a calendula flower.

If I’m not mistaken this is a great banded furrow-bee (Halictus scabiosae)

A furrow bee of some sort (g. Halictus). I think :-)

Carl Schurz Park in early June.

An orange-legged furrow bee (Halictus rubicundus) wiping some pollen off its face in Carl Schurz Park. These are a type of sweat bee, and the same species can be either solitary or eusocial. Not sure which this one is, but it was covered in pollen and having a blast in some sunflowers.
