Hi Cath, these photos are great. I couldn’t quite see clearly enough in sighting 4635390 but I suspected from their behaviour they were bees

Thanks Simone (and Peter). The behaviour at first reminded me of the ones in sighting 4480254 and two others that were identified as Diamma bicolor. Could these be bees too?

Hi Cath, 4480254 is definitely Diamma bicolor. Presumably there is some benefit to them from the clustering behaviour
