The
photos are of Wool-carder Bees (Anthidium manicatum) on Lamb's Ear plants
(Stachys byzantina) at Pennar, Pembroke Dock. I saw them during the last week of
July and was told they have been there for at least three weeks. They have been
scraping the down from the plant leaves to line their nests. One has a nest in
an old piece of driftwood used as an ornament on the patio. I saw at least two
females and one male which was aggressively defending "his" plants.
