Garden Bees - Wolverhampton (1 Viewer)

[The Moore-hen]

Trying again to get started on ID of bees in my garden and got a few (not so great) photos from the weekend that I can't put a definite name to. Any help much appreciated.

1+2: Leafcutter Bee sp. - maybe Wood-carving or Willughby's?
2+3: Mining Bee sp.?
5: Common Carder Bee?

Ok with 5 being Bombus pascuorum
2+3 looks like Halictus rubicundus but can't really see enough to be sure.
1+2 stick at Megachile sp

Excellent, Thank you.

Yes not great shots of 2+3 will try for better.

Lots of the Leafcutters in my garden bee house, so could get shots at different angle if any external features can ID to species?

Cheers
