User's notes
This tree had lots of these bees on it. Again, one would pick a flower and then go right round the outside fiddling with the stamens, and then the centre stigma. Sometimes another bee came in and was quickly hunted away, other times, it was welcomed. Sometimes this resulted in mating, other times not. It was great to watch.
