I had a visit of a red tailed bee in the kitchen the other day, it was rather sleepy so I was able to have a good look at it. I was delighted as I have never seen one before. The red tail was quite furry and unusual.
I took it into the garden and put it among some primroses. I shall keep looking out for them again

it always amazes me, all the different varieties of bees there are :)
I was very excited to see a red bummed bee. It was sat on a windowsill so like you I got a good look.
