Carpenter bees (Xylocopa) are solitary bees (similar to mason and leafcutter bees), and their excavation efforts involve creating a tunnel to raise their brood. Fortunately, they are exceedingly docile as the males don't sting at all, and you practically have to squish the female between your fingers to elicit a reaction.
Thank you very much for your kind comments and visit, much appreciated!
We have had a really hot dry summer this year and a lot of my plants have suffered but my geraniums have flowered their little socks off and the Bees have loved it.
My new friend loves my garden. She eats all the cats' food and if doesn't find any, knocks at my door.
I am hopping she is not going to have any babies,,,,,,,
this little sparrow decided to perch near where I was sitting and didn't seem to mind me sticking a lens into her face to capture this portrait.
I was just passing by, walking along in the village of Oberndorf in Lower Bavaria (Niederbayern). We were complete strangers. But I broke the ice by offering the horses a couple of juicy plums from a tree beyond the electric fence. From that moment on we were the best of friends. I posted one image of these two back in 2018, but I like this one too. [FUJI8598_lr_2000]

Thank you all for the clicks, comments & faves.
The only way to get a clean shot was to crawl part way under the gate (the only part of the fence not electrified), which resulted in the somewhat unusual POV. There was no threat - their body language says it all.

These impressing monkeys have an amazing mimikry. Its a subspecies of baboons wich live in the "Tierpark Berlin". Only one day with good weather when we were in Berlin for a long weekend - so we choosed to try to make some sunshine photos away from the many tourists in the inner city. This was a good idea.. :-D

When exiting the water the surfer clocked me (Steven ) lol and looked straight into my lens and waved and smiled which made my day....a bit of friendliness goes a very long way....
I didn't have a long lens with me so used the longest I had at the time which happened to be a Sigma 105mm Macro Lens but it did the job...

Ps Flickr is exceptionally slow and I keep getting bad panda page...I went on the discussions and left a comment as apparently it is becoming an issue yet again.
Beautiful fox who befriended us and lived in our garden, she would sleep next to us in the garden and pop into the kitchen for a treat.
While I was about to get into my car, I saw this lovely cat appear from underneath someone's side gate. Not to be confused with my neighbour's cat, Nala, this guy is much more furry. I was pleased I happened to have my camera with me.
Only one of all the Red-backed Shrikes I saw at the Cristei Meadow was brave and friendly enough to approach me.
I know waves are not friendly to people sometimes, but I captured these waves from my hometown, Kalutara North, Sri Lanka. I feel like they are friendly!!!
This friendly Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) was rescued (I believe from a fur farm) and is now housed at the BC Wildlife Park in Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada.
She shares her enclosure with another Red Fox, Raven, who has a unique black and white marble colouring (will upload photos of her later on).
