Just a little cuckoo

I've been trying to get a pic of a Cuckoo Bee for a couple of days. I didn't know the name, until I looked it up tonight. I just knew it was one I hadn't seen and that it was fast!

I'm feeling a little cuckoo myself tonight. We're having a family gathering on Sunday and my house is a disaster! I really have to work on it tonight. I'll catch up on your awesome pics as soon as I can. :0)

Thank you for your nice comments and faves for my Monarch pic yesterday!!! :0)
