Lasioglossum (Dialictus) sp.
Small metallic-colored short-tongued bee. Observed licking my fingers, presumably for the salts in my sweat. Would fly away if disturbed, only to return and resume licking.
At a city park.

Thanks textless. It really is hard with a small, shiny moving creature. At least the taste of my fingers was enough to appease her for a bit. :)
Great photos... it's hard to capture something so tiny. :)
