This is typical of the very common ground-nesting small bees that are occupying south-facing dry slopes within my un-irrigated lawn. They tend to be quite active on warm late afternoons, They are very skittish in comparison to most bees, and will stay still and "play dead" if they see me when on the ground. They often hover around at about 10 cm above the surface, but when many are out they form very active patterns up to 1 meter above the ground

We found this on our field equipment after an ORV drive to a site. Although it could have been on a Liatris on the way, I don't recall seeing many Liatris in flower on this route.

Not sure of identity - I have seen this quite large wasp several places this week - often on Liatris spicata var. resinosa, this one on Platanthera conspicua
