Common Mini-mining Bee (Andrena minutula) perhaps?

In fact

This one has abdomen bands at the anterior of the segments rather than the hind margin. Also a greenish tint.

Common Green Furrow Bee (Lassioglossum morio)

A huge thanks to Nick Owens for all the helpful id comments.

Very still, caught on the cliff face when the sun went in. But very quickly active as the sun cam out again.

It was just at the margin of too cold today. One minute the sun was warm on the eastern side of the pile and there were thousand of bees flying with a glorious active hum. The next minute the clouds came over the temperature dropped and there was silence.

Some were caught out and just stopped out in the open, which gave the opportunity for photography. But they very quickly started up again when the clouds moved on and the sun warmed them up.
