The Golden-browed Resin Bee (Megachile aurifrons) are opportunistic and are known to take over the abandoned mud nests of other wasps. With their reddish eyes and golden-brow they are an interesting bee to watch, especially when preparing the nest for their offspring.
We hope you enjoy some of our short video footage of the Golden-browed Resin Bee (Megachile aurifrons). These were filmed in Alice Springs, Northern Territory.
