Someone decided to make a nest inside a sheltered wooden pole. I wonder who...?

Incredibly cool to watch. There was two different females - one at the stage of sealing her nest cell with sand/earth (this one) the other seemingly still delivering pollen and grains of sand to pack the shell interior. There was also attendance when they were away by their jewel wasp cuckoo (didn't enter their specific shells in the 30 mins I was there, but did investigate the other shells) and satellite flies. See the subsequent entries for them
