I noticed this small insect in the corner of the window, which after closer inspection turned out to be a nomada bee. These bees are always beautiful and interesting species, though difficult to identify.

It turns out to be a female Nomada flavoguttata [1] (det. Albert de Wilde), a new garden species.
