Yellow Discs - _TNY_8792
Here is a cute plasterer bee known as either the Davies' Colletes (Colletes daviesanus or the bare-saddled Colletes (C. similis).
The first of them manages two generations during a Swedish summer, the first flies when the ox-eye daisies are in bloom and gen two during the tansies - at which point the second species is also around. And since this one is on a tansy (Tanacetum vulgare) near the small island of Notholmen in Värmdö, Sweden - there is no telling which of them it is.
Also, just below the bee, a fruit fly Tephritidae sp.) is photo bombing the shot
