Three from today.
It is hard to get the little blighters pin sharp especially when flying. In the first shot the nearest bee is out of the sharp area of the field of view, but hey I have never got a shot of bees stacking up to land on a flower before.

Two more. These Dog Roses and the bees make for a great pic. Give it a few days and the Dog Roses will be gone until next year.

Edit: I got one of a Hoverfly also. There are afew more on Flickr.

Splendid photos Paul. I like the feather and eye reflection details. Thank you for sharing

Whilst in John Lewis Brent Cross today, I tried out the A6000, A6300 and an A7ii
I wasn't able to test panning, shutter lag. No memory card. The A6500 was out on loan to John Lewis Oxford Street. What surprised me was that the full frame was lighter than than the A6300, although there was not much in the difference.
