got my hands on a field guide of californian bugs and i found that there's this one bee species in southern california that looks like this
![[id: a drawing of xylocopa varpuncta, aka the valley carpenter bee. the drawing portrays a female and male of the species respectively
the female is pitch black, she has huge eyes and sketchily drawn antennae on her head. she has blue-purple lighting on the side of her face to bring out the details. Under her is white text surrounded by a black box that reads, "FEMALE".
The male is drawn in a far more simplified and cartoonish way. He is yellow and has a lighter sand color "mane" around his neck. he has huge, green eyes with beady pupils. he has rounded antennae. below him is text that reads, "male". end id]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/f1014b9292a7dd5e95fb21b9a36288a2/a63d91e5d2a95aac-9d/s500x750/50d3c5f364f0d7cf4999cf4c63929b23ef63ff7a.png)
