Fantastic, Bret!!! I'm jealous. Everybody's getting all these bees and dragonflies in flight shots. :-D

Good morning and thank you everyone for the comments. People freak out when I catch these guys and turn them loose again...just a harmless carpenter bee.

I was incorrect. Correction! "He", not she.. It's a male carpenter bee. The female (which has a stinger) is seldom seen. The male can't sting and is the one with the light colored face. The female's face is dark. I looked them up just now, interesting bees.
