Violet Carpenter Bee

A very hard working Carpenter bees at the back of my garden. I caught it finally, not that scary after all, just very big and cute❤️. Even though they are solitary they are not aggressive and quite friendly with other bees and there are quite a few of them in my back garden. Carpenter bees lay only up to 6 eggs! They build their nests in wood and males are completely harmless. And they happily share their flowers with bumblebees and other insects! Each taking their turn! Often they decide to share the flower at the same time!❤️❤️❤️
