Bees nesting in lawn

says... I doesn's seem to match the digger bee picture in the link provided by sed5555 ... shiny green non-spotted thorax, head hard to tell but looks greenish, does have yellow segment. Here's a pretty good look at some. http://www.pollinator.com/gallery/digger_bees.htm -- http://home.comcast.net/~larflu/bludf2.jpg Lar. (to e-mail, get rid of the BUGS!! |

Bees nesting in lawn
Thank you for a reasonable suggestion, but these bees are swarming around the
nest area and it wouldn't be possible to capture one. I realize the identification I gave is vague; I guess I'm just looking to narrow down the possibilities so I can do some more online research. I've tried searching for "ground-nesting social bees" and the like, and have had lots of hits but no real means of identification. (And it may not matter.....!) By the way, I'm in the northeastern USA, if that helps with anything. Thanks again, Carol Can you describe it in more detail. coloration,flight,size,etc? |
