An active and attractive little bee; I think it's the species above since it's not as flattened and 'bee-like' as the most common Leioproctus genus is supposed to be (I could be mistaken).
Using my 1:2 life-size 90mm Tokina macro lens on the crop-sensor Nikon D300 results in a decent scale within the frame for insects down to around 1cm in length. It also provides sufficient distance from the front element to give plenty of unshaded natural light from all angles and a less disturbing proximity to shy creatures.
