This leaf-cutter bee made a nest in the stem of a dill (which I let self-seed for Black Swallowtails larval food. At first, it was just a hole in the stem, but a wind storm broke it in two.

Megachile cutting petals for her nest. She carried them down to the stems in the brush and seemed to be shoving them into a cracked stem at the base of the flowers. There is that Silver-tailed Petal-cutting bee, maybe she is one of those?

It is unusual to see pollinators at Vinca flowers, so I started snapping photos of this native bee. It was not gathering pollen or nectar--but cutting petals for its nest. (Such smooth cuts!) Note: The order of these photos is last to first.

Several males grasped this recently emerged female but then let her go quickly. After several attempted matings like that, she flew away and was grabbed in mid-air by another male. I didn't see the outcome of that attempted mating.
