User's notes

Several different native bees on this group of Dianellas. Location comes up as Googong, but it's actually in the Jerrabomberra reserve near Stockyard Creek.

I love the blurring of the wings as she buzzes the anthers.

Oh yes! So is it a female?

Yes. Males don't carry pollen on the legs.
