  2. So that’s a wrap.
    Thanks folks.
    Great to see you all here for #WorldBeeDay2023.
    Please follow the signs to the nearest exit.
    And remember as @thebeeguy always says

    #Bees are for life, not just for #honey

    Hey wait…that’s me.
    That’s what I say.
    I’m The Bee Guy…can I even @ myself?🙄😂🐝🙏🏼

    Goodnight good people.

  3. #WorldBeeDay Challenge.

    I challenge you to watch this brief clip of a #miningbee grooming whilst perched on the tip of my finger and not find yourself smiling and feeling good.

    This is what we are losing.
    This.

    Want to do something about it?
    I do.

  4. Here's my contribution to #WorldBeeDay, #WorldBeeDay2023. I wrote this in 2006. Bees don't get enough love. #short-story #vss #bees

  5. Happy #WorldBeeDay2023 Don't forget that there is a great diversity of wild bee species, like this Andrena cineraria, a common wild bee nesting in the ground and feeding on many plants. These are more important pollinators than the (domesticated) honey bee (in the background).

  6. Oops, has crept up on me, so I'm re-sharing last year's post/video ⬆️ .

    My sunflowers are still far from blooming this year anyway, but here's a red tailed stuck inside a white cornflower instead...

    NB: All the advice above still applies...

  7. It is #WorldBeeDay! Here's a few photos I've taken over the years. (I don't usually find bees, let alone am able to take good photos of them)

  8. If you have bee photos, bee stories, bee drawings, bee poems. Today's the day. I would like to see the baby. #WorldBeeDay2023

  9. More Hunt's bumblebees checking out some mint. Hunt's are pretty common here, so probably my most photographed bee species. #WorldBeeDay #WorldBeeDay2023

  10. “There are over 800 species of native bees in Canada and over 300 in Alberta, and yet we know so little about them.” Megan Evans, Alberta Native Bee Council ecofriendlywest.ca/so-much-we- #WorldBeeDay2023

  11. This one is not a particularly good photo, and my confidence that it's a bee and not a wasp is kind of low. But ignoring all that - IT IS MAGNIFICENT! #WorldBeeDay #WorldBeeDay2023

  12. It's World Bee Day, which seems like as good an opportunity as any to post some bee* photos I've taken over the years. #WorldBeeDay #WorldBeeDay2023

    *I'm a terrible taxonomist, so I make no guarantees that a wasp or two won't sneak into this thread...

  13. It's World Bee Day! Did you know that a bee landing on your hand means money is on the way? If one lands on your head, it means success will be yours!

    It's also essential to speak to bees in a calm voice. And you should never swear at bees. They might take offence and leave their hive.

    I have a blog post with more bee lore if you're interested - icysedgwick.com/bees-folklore/
