Tawny mining bee, maybe? (1 Viewer)

[colincurry]

Recent garden snaps taken in the shade with setting just used to photograph flying bee-fly; hence not the greatest.

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Certainly not that species! As to what it is I'm no expert. Maybe Andrena scotica?

Can’t swear to accuracy. But it gave same result for other pics

Thank you gentlemen.

I did say 'maybe' in the post title! Have checked Buffish Mining Bee in the Field Guide and this does seem more likely.
