Giant Carpenter Bee

Easter Sunday was a beautiful day to enjoy the backyard...an unexpected guest stopped by to enjoy a treat from the Lillies..

Trivia: There are some 500 species of carpenter bee in 31 subgenera.^[1] Their name comes from the fact that nearly all species build their nests in burrows in dead wood, bamboo, or structural timbers. Carpenter bees can be important pollinators on open-faced flowers
