Black Bee Ref B 001 UK
Date image captured 20-6-17 late morning in Newmarket, Suffolk.
Not easy to identify, going just on images alone I know…
Could it be a female Andrena nigrospina (Scarce Black Mining Bee)?
Or Andrena pilipes (Black mining Bee)?
Hopefully the flowering Bramble will give you some idea of the length of this bee?
Please do get in touch with me on any ideas you may have, thanking you …. David March
