update: Thanks to Bernhard Jacobi for his help - it`s not M. ericetorum, it`s possibly M. willughbiella. I have to make some more photos!
I have found a female: Megachile ericetorum f nectaring / Stachys
el.gritche had told me that they are collecting on Lathyrus. They visit Stachys for nectaring only. So this afternoon I was searching for Lathyrus latifolius - now I have a plant growing in my garden. Hope to see more of them!
I've been told that this might be a 'Greenland' Wheatear, but I'm far from sure? If anyone can confirm I'd greatly appreciate it.
