We put an old stump into a trailer and these insects came flying out, are these natives bees or something else?

They are in the bottom of the shot.
I can take better photos if necessary.
They fly but don't sting.

They sure are :)
Thank you.
If the stump is till intact you can always just put it on a stand or another part of the garden... they are top notch pollinators!
Would there be an organisation or people that would want to come get them?
I’ll take it off your hands if you want it gone. I have several hives and am addicted to native stingless bees.
But if you want to keep them, you can only move them half a metre a day from the original location. The bees get lost and the hive will die otherwise.
I wouldn’t be surprised if some people here would PM you about that as they are brilliant to any garden. I don’t have a hive built spare but if you send pics of the log... I might pick it depending on the size.
