Leaf Cutter Bee (Anthidium auritum) on Wild Plant

in hive-144064 •  16 days ago 

When I was about to leave the hunting spot, I accidentally spotted something was moving in the bush on the roadside. I stopped and tried to pay close attention to what I just saw. It's a bee that was busy searching for food on the wildflower. So after I parked my vehicle, I walked there while making sure my gears work fine. For a while, I waited for it to calm so I could manage to take a couple of shots. When I felt right, I aimed my lens toward it and started to focus on the place where it stood. Among many taken photos, I only found some worth sharing photos. To be honest, I don't really know what is its specific name which I believe it has one. Even though I spent some time on the internet, still I was unable to find the proper name of this beautiful bee. I guess this insect is classified as a carpenter bee, if it is seen from the front part while the yellow fur made me sure, it is another type of bumblebee.
