Eastern Carpenter Bee - Xylocopa virginica. Female I believe. A bit excessive on the pinning but I'm sure I'll get more economical with practice. I spread the wings improper. They should be touching to form one wing by standards. This is my learning curve. #insect #macrophotography #insectphotography #insectsofinstagram #carpenterbee #easterncarpenterbee #bee #entomology #insectcollection
