Second generation ashy mining bee (Andrena cineria)

I'm not sure about this identification. According to BWARS, these bees are occasionally seen later in the year, although July and August are the months they reference. If anyone does have comments as to the id, I'd be grateful. No specimen or detailed description available. Size &c. as per A. cineria.

 

Female insect in the family Andrenidae, showing long black and white hair and compound eye
