The same bee as this one.

This bee visited all the clovers this evening, then he couldn't even fly right, I think he was drunk on pollen!

I've been harassing the bees on my lunchbreak again. They don't mind the camera, just keep going about their business.

Collecting pollen

First time we have seen these at Lake Hindmarsh (they are there, but our first time!) quite a distance away, think we will have to go back with a packed dinner and hope they come closer!!

Not sure if I have ID correct.
