I believe, not 100% on this one though. Long face, but I think bradleyi should have even longer malar (like this one from the same location: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/79446500)? Was on blueberry (and see blueberry pollen on legs) at (tiny) remnant pine barrens where Colletes validus, Habropoda laboriosa, and Andrena bradleyi occur

Interesting behavior: appears to be attempted theft of pollen from the bumblebee worker by the honeybee. The honeybee was repeatedly landing on the bumblebee for at least a minute, and actually followed the bumblebee to a second flower on the bull thistle plant. On looking at the photos, it appears the honeybee worker was targeting the pollen clumps on the corbicula. She was not successful in removing an entire clump but did seem to be getting some of it off.
