Let's just say they are nastylittle critters and will wipe out our native bee population:
Hi stu62 I think the native bee population is safe from these. They feed on small flies and stuff. I think they might be native to the UK too.

Until this morning
These are what came out went back in came out again and eventually flew off.
I saw around 6 fly away, but there seemed to be more down there.
They look like a wasp type thing i shot a while ago, face wise, but these are just black, might just be because these are just emerging and haven't developed their colours yet or they might not be the same bug at all.
