An anthophorid digger bee (Anthophora urbana) departs a vinegarweed flower after extracting nectar. Notice the exposure of the flower stamen to pollen on the bee's behind. For an interesting read, ask your favorite LLM AI about the pollination mechanism of vinegarweed. See bugguide.net/node/view/78939
Field Digger Wasps (Mellinus arvensis) in our Staffordshire garden. There have been loads of males around for a while, but this is the first female I've seen. The males spotted her too.
Every year I try to get good shots of the females catching flies. I have a mental image of the shot I want, but have never quite got it. Their sting paralyses the flies and they are then used to provision the wasp's brood chambers. The wasps nest in the ground.
While I liked the color version of "Digger" which I posted recently I was tempted to do a B&W version after coming across the Damien Lovegrove method for converting color images to monochrome. fujilove.com/rafs-to-mono-with-impact-and-style/ It's an interesting approach and I think this image does "Digger" justice.
Taken on walk in the back wilderness area behind our home. Cooper is digging for something, usually leftover "stuff"from other dogs or animals.

this little dog was very busy digging out a mouse hole.
He had disappeared with his whole head and the sand was flying through the area.
Fun to watch!
These metal sculptures of the “root diggers” can be seen next to Highway 155 in Washington State. They were made by a member of the Colville Confederated Tribes, Virgil “Smoker” Marchand.
A large "development" of modern houses and apartments on the outskirts of town. Not as ugly as many but still a very strong "could be bloody anywhere" vibe.

15th Century English Farming Abstract Art This image presents an abstract view of 15th-century English farming, focusing on stylized diggers and the earth. It features complementary colors and fine details in a vibrant mosaic-like texture. Created by Diney on Oct 21, 2025 using the HiDream I1 Dev AI image generator model.
(The original Diggers were a radical group of agrarian communists in England who emerged in 1649, following the execution of King Charles I. Led by Gerrard Winstanley and William Everard, they attempted to cultivate common land as a "common treasury for all" and create egalitarian rural communities, believing that the earth was for everyone and that private property and class hierarchy were wrong. Harassed by local landowners and authorities, the Diggers were dispersed by early 1650.)

Indeed , it did not seem long to dig up the old drive ( hope he had the right address !! ) . A nifty little bit of kit doing a good job it seems .
Perched up high and dominating things.

No idea how old this is, but it looks as though it’s been abandoned in this field for many years.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
These solitary bees are important pollinators in the southwestern U.S. I took this shot in the Mr. Baldy Wilderness Area in AZ at about 9000'.
Angles are sharply enhanced by a sweeping nine frame multiple exposure, as captured in a Pembrokeshire farm yard.
Hand-held & polarised. Heaps of added contrast & saturation to add to the in-camera increase in contrast and saturation. There's a pattern emerging... HSS! ;-)
