We had a Leafcutter Bee building a nest in a hole in the garden bench during the July heatwave 2 years ago, I think I recall posting about it on NW. It was taking cuttings from leaves on a bush at the top of the garden.

Louby, have you found out where's it's getting the leaves from? If so that would be your chance to get a photo - unless it's in deep foliage :) .

(this thread could have been called Bee-Haviour :) )

No the bugger is too quick to follow to find out where he is going :)

Here's a good site, if you look under Megachillinae it might be one of them.
