This bee is ready for action. A green berry bee starts to chew out of her cocoon.

Osmia aglaia - shining, gleaming iridescent green wonders of the world - everything one could dream a bee could be. At night I am often tempted to take them out of their nest blocks and give them a good polishing to ensure a fine appearance for the next photo session. So far they've taken good care of their own looks, so no need to disturb them. Lovely bees. The next big thing in managed agricultural bees for the west coast. #bees #osmiaaglaia #raspberrybee #greenberrybee #greenbee #macroworld_tr #macro_spotlight #insects_of_our_world #insectsofinstagram #insects_macro #kings_insects #photooftheday #macro_perfection #pocket_insects
Osmia aglaia on Dutch white clover (Trifolium repens). Dutch white clover is the common white flower that grows in lawns. I've been working hard to mix it into my lawn in mass quantities this year. While bees enjoy visiting it, the benefits don't stop there- this clover can fix up to 170 lbs. of nitrogen per acre, which makes for very potent soil. It also makes a lawn far more beautiful and interesting than pure turf grass. #bees #whiteclover #clover #trifoliumrepens #nitrogenfixing #insects_macro #fiftyshades_of_macro #macro_captures #bug #osmiaaglaia #greenberrybee #pollinator #pollinatorgarden #beautifullawn #lawns #insects_of_our_world #pocket_insects #mat_macro #canon #kings_insects #macroworld_tr #macrofreaks #bug
Osmia aglaia - female shown for comparison with yesterday's photo of a male. I can look at these bees all day. #bees #osmiaaglaia #raspberrybee #greenberrybee #insects_of_our_world #macro_spotlight #macro_perfection #photooftheday #photooftheday #beesofinstagram #insect #macroworld_tr #photoarena_nature #masonbee #greenbee #irridescent #pocket_insects #tgif_insects #coolbug
