Thyreus lugubris
Australian native bee. Body length 20mm. ID by ShannaB + her hubby. Thankyou so much .... !
Found inside the building - pic #3 being transported to the garden - flying from one flower to another, devouring nectar - poor little fella, he was soooo hungry!
Thank you AnnvanWijgerden, I agree, it is a cool critter ... and native to Australia ... that is also cool ..... :)
Hi again Chicquita, my husband has sourced an ID for you (see above - I can't take any of the credit)! Here is some more info re Cuckoo Bees: http://www.nativebeesanctuary.com.au/cuc...
Whatever it is, that is one cool critter! Lovely colourful photo series! :-)
