User's notes
The bee was sighted hovering very loudly just above patio paving, flying slowly from side to side and close up to an adjacent wall. It touched down very briefly every now and again (less than 2 seconds) as seen in the first image. This behaviour went on for several minutes before the bee flew off. Unsure what this behaviour is but it has been seen before as covered by sightings 4432383 and 4432907.
