Xylocopa micans
Found resting or sleeping while it holds onto a blade of wheat with its mandibles and legs.
This year we're growing a combination of wheat, rye and oats as a cover crop in part of our vegetable garden. Insects are easy to spot, from a distance, in this patch of green. But my iphone often won't focus on the insect which is frustrating.
