Trumpet bee

The flowers are in full bloom around here and the pollen drinkers are as abundant. I've seen quite a few moths, butterflies, dragonflies and bee-like bugs out and about in my yard lately. This trumpet vine flower is fairly large so this bee (?) went all the way in and then back out again as opposed to the quick fly by that most bugs do on smaller flowers. That gave me a better chance of catching his photo. The one flower sticking out with brushes of sunlight just worked out perfectly. I still need a good macro lens...
