First visitors to this new house design. Most visits are to the tubes. Only a view to the wood block. At first, these visits seemed like scouting because the time duration in the hole was short. After a few days, the stay was 3-4 min inside the holes. Bee always backs out to leave. I often do photo stacking of bee flights with honey hives. Honey bees tend to approach with a tobacco pipe shape. They swoop down, then up. These bees so far seem to have a "s" with a pan across. Maybe this is a scan of the vertical terrain?
The weather changed from bright and sunny to overcast with a little drizzle and the temperature dropped. It was the perfect conditions to go looking for lethargic critters and I found this Seat Bee on a Dandelion.
Tech Specs: Canon 90D (F11, 1/125, ISO 200) + a Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens (set to 2x) + a diffused MT-26EX-RT, E-TTL metering, -1 FEC. This is a single, uncropped, frame taken hand held. In post I used Topaz Denoise AI and Clarity in that order. I used a green leaf to keep the background from being black.
