User's notes
Thanks to Marcus Leach for the initial sighting of the bee. It was initially seen on the bush very briefly before leaving and returning within a minute. After briefly checking a couple of blossoms the bee left the area and didn't return within 10 minutes. From both of our observations this appeared to be a relatively young bee as no wing wear was evident.
