The first image shows the female backing away from a flower and shedding pollen into the air, with a patrolling male in the background between the female and the flower. The second image shows the female with the male in the top righthand corner of the image. (The male is the subject of a separate sighting record 4356630). The female eventually left the area flying up into the air in a slow zigzag flight with the male close behind and presumably breeding occurred.
