Knocklofty Reserve, Hobart/nipaluna
Identification thanks to Bernhard Jacobi and John Ascher This bee was laden with pollen, and I found it sitting on a leaf. I held the leaf to keep it steady, but the bee decided to take the opportunity to walk up my hand – not easy for taking photos with a heavy camera.

The bee was stuck in a puddle, then fished out to dry. Abundant active burrows were on the roadside.
