?Golden-haired miner bee? on California bee plant in native plant garden backyard in Concord, CA on May 17, 2023 - Andrena - Female
Concord, Contra Costa County, California, USA
May 17, 2023
Observed on California bee plant. 6 photos taken. iNat (link below) identifier ID'd it as Andrea. Using Frankie et al. 2014, I suggested golden-haired miner bee. But not sure. Maybe this website can ID with confidence.
