I caught this feisty bee looking for a place to nest in/around our front porch (not ideal, considering the number of bird feeders there!), then put her in the fridge for a little while before taking some images and letting her go in the back yard (where there were no bird feeders in the immediate vicinity). Notes:

• Length: ~12 mm (I have a photo with a ruler, if it's needed for confirmation)
• Cavity-nester, she was definitely looking for a place in our porch (she seemed interested in some of the larger bamboo poles used for tying up plants)
• Collected around 7:00 pm
• Apologies for the multitude of photos—I'm using a new extension tube (in lieu of a macro lens) and have been having a little difficulty getting the depth of field consistent. But I have more photos, if needed, with specific features in focus...
• Photographed on white printer paper

Thanks!
