 Hi All

In the process of moving and my bee book is boxed-up............. somewhere.

From digging around the best I can come up with is a female Andrena bicolor.
Can someone please confirm or put me straight?

Thanks, Gareth

 It's rather a female Andrena dorsata. The pollen covers the hind leg characters, but everything else fits.
