A wee bee interaction today. This little one was super curious about beautiful wifeys hand.
It actually landed on and explored all around - I have video of this if anyone would like to see it.

Three allotment photos from this lunchtime.
The first picture is for context - it's a table made of a metal frame with a rotting chipboard and formica top.We've seen solitary leafcutter bees going into the chipboard edge for a few weeks, and today I decided to try to photo them.
I'll never make a wildlife photographer - insufficient patience!
But you can just see a couple of the bees in the next two pictures.These leafcutter bees are important pollinators and it's fascinating to watch them carrying pieces of leaf into the burrows in the table edge.

Making the most of what's left of the summer.
The bees are really busy in all our flowers at the moment. What we need now is a bit of sun, as I think we've had enough of the rain. Thank you.
Have a lovely #Tuesday friends.

It's #BeeFactFriday! 🐝❤️
Sweat bees are quite common here in Canada, and they are known to lick the sweat (salt) from people's skin. If this happens to you, feel lucky that you fed a sweat bee! Here is a sweat bee on a mint plant in our backyard.

Buzz pollination - in brief.
Bees rapidly contract their flight muscles. This produces powerful vibrations which they channel to the flower using their legs/mouths.
Result = a #pollen explosion all over the bee.
Happy bee!#bees #beesofmastodon #bumblebees

PLEASE boost this forward.
The more informed, the more queens survive and the more #bumblebees we have.

Our native wild #bees are in trouble and we need to be there for them every way we can.
Thanks again for helping!
Have a great one. 8/8

Usually once she takes on some sugars and heats up she’ll happily fly off.
Don’t bring her indoors for long periods! If she has already established a nest and laid eggs she needs to get back to sit on them before they cool down. 7/8#bees #beesofmastodon #bumblebees

In this case preference is to move her to a nearby source of #nectar - a #flower! If no flowers are nearby she can be offered a 50/50 mix of white sugar and water.
NEVER offer her honey as although it would seem to be the obvious action honey can contain pathogens that may be harmful to #bumblebees 6/8#bees #beesofmastodon

As with sleeping dogs leave resting bees lie - for up to an hour before intervening. (Unless of course she is in imminent danger whereby she should be carefully moved to a safe place). If after about an hour she is still present then she may need assistance. 5/8

These between flight stopovers can last for up to an hour and #bees are not always careful about where they take them - sometimes the middle of a footpath can be the ‘ideal’ spot!
So if you see a big #bumblebee chilling on the ground don’t always presume she needs rescuing! 4/8#bumblebees #beesofmastodon

Hence you will observe queens flying low to the ground zig-zagging across the landscape - they’re house-hunting. Stopping to explore in long grass and vegetation, hollows in trees, stone walls, under sheds and even compost heaps. During this time bumblebee queens spend a lot of their time resting between flights. 3/8

Bumblebee queens emerge in early spring from hibernation and immediately need to feed - that’s why early flowering plants are so important. Apart from feeding, their mission at this time is to find a suitable site to establish a nest. 2/8

Mornin’.
Many people asking us about #bumblebees at the moment - why they’re seeing them on the ground - so what follows is a quick series of toots to explain what they’re up to. Please #boost as every #queen bumblebee that survives means a new colony that gets to exist and produce new queen bees for next year! 1/8

Good afternoon.
Pause.
Spend a moment with a shower soaked wee mining bee.
You’ll be better for it.Quick fact: Of the 20,000 or so bee species on the #planet over 90% are #solitarybees.

A reassuring constant in a fickle world.Basic bee facts every day at 3pm.
# 127.
In the UK an army sniffer dog trained to locate #bumblebee nests was able to very accurately find nests of a range of bumblebee species - suggesting that colonies of different bumblebee species emit a similar smell.
