Mainly active in hot sunny conditions, they prefer sitting on well drained exposed sandy soil, logs, posts, or stones. Highly alert, and with a very mobile head they watch for the slightest movement ready to pounce on its prey.

By walwyn - February 15th, 2010
Worldwide there are over 500 species of these wasp-like bees. They are generally hairless, black with yellow-white faces small bees. They feed their larvae pollen, but being hairless cannot collect it in the normal manner, instead the female carries the pollen and nectar in her crop and regurgitates it into the cell into which she will lay an egg. Once the eggs are laid in each cell they are closed and the parent dies.
