User's notes

The bee was initially sighted hovering just above the ground in front of a gap between a brick wall and concrete path. The bee slowly moved along the wall remaining in front of the gap, and whilst it partially entered the gap a couple of times, it never touched down or stopped flying. This behaviour continued for several minutes before the bee flew off. The bee's wing beat was quite loud.
