I just saw a pale blue bee on some clover right next to a honey bee. It =
was smaller than the honey bee and def. not a blue orchard bee [not even =
slightly metallic in colouration and =E2=80=9Cpowder blue=E2=80=9D =
pale]. It was quite similar to the honey bee in =
=E2=80=9Cfuzzyness=E2=80=9D and stripes, only about 25% smaller.

Any idea what this could be?=20
