Digger Bee - Habropoda cineraria - female

Digger Bee - Habropoda cineraria - Female
Rock Island Creek, near Wenatchee, Douglas County, Washington, USA
May 9, 2008
Attracted to western stoneseed, ignoring nearby balsamroot. I don't see any other specimen with such a hairy orange tibia (doesn't look like pollen to me).

Since ID as H. cineraria, it appears that hairy legs are the norm, but their color seems to be variable.
