I was wondering the same thing. I found this article on the NC extension site: https://www.ces.ncsu.edu/depts/ent/notes/O&T/lawn/note100/note100.html .
Several possibilities - here's an excerpt:
There are many common species of solitary bees that nest in individual holes in the ground. They are all good pollinators. These bees range in size form 1/2 to 3/4 inches and may be a variety of colors such as blue, green, copper or metallic reddish-brown. They may belong to one of several groups of bees such as the membrane bees, digger bees, sweat bees, mason bees and leafcutter bees (Colletidae, Halictidae, Andrenidae , Anthophoridae, Megachilidae ) and occur across the state.
