Description
At only 11mm long, I first thought this was a fly of some sort.
I had never seen a bee that small, much less a green one.
This is a female Sweat Bee - Agapostemon texanus,
The male has a black and gold striped abdomen.
Thanks very kindly for your views and comments.

I have seen only a few and this one is a splendid color green! I love the clarity of the bee and ant. Well done!
