This week I'll be posting the smaller visitors in the garden around this time of year (which is January in this album lol).
The stingless social native bees in Australia belong to two groups or genera: Tetragonula and Austroplebeia. All the bees are black and about 3 to 4 mm long.
The ones in our garden are probably Tetragonula carbonaria.
They are tiny and fast - it is always a challenge to photograph them.
