Wow...absolutely fantastic Shadow, he must have 'pots' of patience to catch it in action, how many pictures did he actually take to manage to get a good one????
Last year I was sitting hand sewing under the covered terrace and this little leaf cutter bee kept buzzing around me...then I realised it was laying eggs down the centre of my lamp (the end was missing) so...I set myself up and eventually managed to catch it....here she is....
