User's notes

Bees resting in a cluster on a flower stem for 4 to 5 days, for the second year in a row. They arrive, cluster around and over a few flowers on the bush, and stay there for just under a week. Identification gained from posting photos to friends who have entomology experience, and who also posted to a local bee facebook group.
