Halictid Bee (I Think)

If you would like to post, you'll need to register. Note that if you have a BCG store account, you'll need a new, separate account here (we keep the two sites separate for security purposes).

Came across what I thought was a Cuckoo wasp today but after some research I believe it's a species of Sweat Bee. The body is fully metallic green and the exoskeleton is pitted upon close inspection, but it was quite small and the legs are kind of hairy for a Cuckoo. I think it's very striking whether it's a bee or a wasp but I'd appreciate an ID from someone with a bit more experience than me and constructive criticisms are welcome as well, there's always room to improve.
