    Mites use #bumblebees as taxis clinging to them to hitch a ride into the nest where they feed on pollen/wax/detritus - not the bees!
    Most mite species that hang with bumblebees are generally fairly harmless to the #bees.

  2. Mornin’.

    A natural spring keeps the wetland habitat wet here on The Bee Sanctuary of Ireland.

    We undervalue fresh clean pure #wild #water at our peril.

    Bumblebee food demand peaks during March to June. Shortage of food during these critical months can result in dire consequences for colony survival/queen production and risks local population extinction.

    # 312.

    A recent study utilising computer modelling and focusing on two common European #bumblebees indicates that #bees need food up to a month earlier than when many recommended ‘pollinator friendly’ plant species actually flower.

    Basic bee facts every day at 3pm.

    # 286.

    The surface of a bumblebee’s two large compound eyes is smooth and hairless.
    Is that not obvious? I hear you think.
    Nope - honey bees and many other insects have what are called interommatidial hairs on the eye surface.

  16. Good evening, hope your day’s suited you so far.

    What a sight to behold.

    Bumblebee all in on this cucumber flower. No doubt.

    What we call the double goodness.
    Bumblebee gets fed.
    Bumblebee pollinates our #cucumbers and feeds us.

    All for free.
    And natural.
    Gotta love #bumblebees folks.

  17. Had a chat recently with the lovely Samantha for The Animal Friendly Podcast.
    We covered a lot, meandering gently but honestly through why we’re here, what you can do to help #bees, the #honeybee nature reserve hoax, the role of #farmers in helping bees, poisoned ‘bee friendly #flowers and all points in between.
