While they are nice pictures there is little that might help with identification. She might be Lipotriches muscosa, but there are many other possibilities in different genera.

Thanks, Michael. Went back the next day to that place hoping to get a more comprehensive profile but there were no bees present.
I've added two more lesser-quality images in the hope they give more clues. Apologies...these were taken with a 150-600mm lens and the bee was less than cooperative. LOL
