Basic bee facts every day at 3pm.# 121
Some mites ‘synchronise’ their lives with #bumblebees.
They attach to a new queen in autumn (as the other #bees don’t survive the winter) hibernate with her, and then colonise the new nest she starts the following spring.

Felt a bit like spring down by Hidden Pond on the sanctuary this morning.
A little bit of warmth in the air. A few insects breaking the winter curfew. And that subtle change in the light.
Definite stirrings.
Yes definite stirrings.

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.

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. -

Spent a lovely few hours here on the bee sanctuary recently in the company of the gentleman that is Keith Duggan.
The results of our chat are in the Irish Times Magazine today.
Huge genuine thanks to Keith and Ciara Kenny at @irishtimes for telling our story. And of course my partner in crime @thebeegirl for the images.
For #bees.
Always!

After a worryingly slow start this year from an insect point of view - which was being reported to us from all over - things have definitely picked up here on The Bee Sanctuary of Ireland over the past couple of weeks.
Are you noticing the same?

When the #solutions are this beautiful, this simple, then why the resistance? The reticence?
Are we that far gone that this scares us? Doesn’t call to us?
Is lost to us?I don’t believe so.

People asking us about the very small #bumblebees they’ve encountered (if they’re lucky this year!😔) over the past few weeks.
Wanting to know if they are a specific species.
So here’s a brief thread to explain what they are.
Please #boost if you find it interesting.

# 183.
Observation suggests that the first #bumblebee workers leave the nest not at sunrise but up to 2 hours later. The trigger for departure is when the overnight temperature changes from falling to rising and the sun is up.
