Black "bee"

[rkr]

Here is a neat little bee that was in our garden last year. I do not know what it is exactly. I think it is some sort of solitary ground dwelling bee but again I do not know for sure.

That photo in the middle is just beautiful.:) It gives a sort of strange impression, as if the bee is morphing out of the flower.
