  6. I made a full edition of my alfalfa leafcutting bee (Megachile rotundata) cutting a leaf. The alfalfa leafcutting bee is a solitary bee originally from Europe which has been spread to all continents but Antartica for agriculture. In North America it has become feral and widespread. 🧵1/2

    "In 2019, Kit Prendergast was surveying the #insects visiting an incredibly rare plant in the #BremerRanges of Western #Australia when a bee grabbed her attention.
