Here she comes, covered with pollen and ready to make a food ball she will place next to her egg, so that as soon as it hatches, it gets enough food to grow into its imago form. It will then fly away to its life and come back next spring to lay its eggs in the same gallery or the one beneath or the one above...
Did she mistake her hatching gallery with another's or did someone else got into hers ? Seems a bit busy in there...
She is going in, possibly getting the intruder out... (I saw it happened many times before, quite impressive, it then develops into a full fight in flight... kung fu bee)
Not quite... She sits at the entrance of the gallery, waiting for me to get my camera, so that finally I can shoot her in all her golden pollen glory. She didn't move for ages, as if she enjoyed the shooting. I guess she must be used to me by now, coming close, observing, commenting, mumbling and else...
