I was up a ladder sorting out guttering and downpipies that an apprentice roofer botched causing the high capacity gutters that I installed to keep filling and overflowing. The culprit was several screws through the joins in the downpipe sections. Secure joins was about the only plus point. Anyway when up the ladder I noticed this wee worker going into and coming out of an old plug hole

The very next day she had the door made, cut to size and hung. Several months on and I still haven't finished my door.

I always thought these were mason bees but perhaps they're leaf cutter bees. We have mason bees in the lawn that dig little holes. So they get a patch of grass that is cut only once a year.
Important not to mix up the trades.
