I saw these 2 sharing a flower today! are they bees? The smaller one definatly is, I think a young one, but the larger I'm not sure about! I don't normally get close enough to them to see what they look like in detail but since they were so busy with the flower...

Maybe a Bee-fly?
The big one is about 1cm or a bit more
It's black with lots of yellow hairs!!
The bigger one looks like a hairy beetle of some sort.
Or are they 2 different types of bees?
