Get out in the garden or local park this weekend and see how many different bees you can see. Tip: some will be foraging in blossoming fruit trees, others will be nesting in the ground. Red mason bees may emerge from bee hotels. Happy bee spotting! @Marthakearney @Ed_P_Wildlife
First of the male Ashy Mining Bees, on the crabapple, waiting for a lull in the breeze this afternoon. 🐝💚🍃
Very blustery in the garden. Did manage to hold this leaf still and get a shot of the first Orange-tailed Mining Bee (Andrena haemorrhoa) of the year; a male. #Bees #SolitaryBees
Today is National Dandelion Day. Great early forage source for honey bees and other pollinators. Please leave them when flowering and avoid using herbicides which can poison bees. Video: Diane Drinkwater

In response to protesting farmers, the EU Commission has canned a programme aimed at reducing the use of chemical pesticides in farming. Meanwhile, an insect apocalypse is underway. The web of life is literally being sprayed to death before our eyes. We are sleepwalking towards…

Hairy-footed flower #bees will noisily dart around flowers later this month. Buff-tailed #bumblebees are collecting nectar and pollen from snowdrops, hellebore, Mahonia. Tree bumblebee queens may soon join them & bee mimic, the Marmalade hoverfly. @B_Strawbridge @Marthakearney

New year, new #bee calendar! What bees will you see in January? More details at urbanbees.co.uk #biodiversity #Sustainability #Calendar2024
On Day 11 of #HackneyAdvent23 we’re highlighting @BeesintheCity Support their work & learn how to ID bees by buying their “Bees to See in 2024” calendar featuring 39 different species of bee to spot in your garden or park. Purchase here: urbanbees.co.uk/calendar2023/c…
First study looking at sublethal effects of pyrethroid & organophosphate pesticides on bumblebees. Yes, they reduce foraging effectiveness and bees get lost - more research needed to understand longterm implications for reproduction and population levels. besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

September is your last chance to see many of the UK’s common bumblebee species ⚠️ This month, many bumblebee nests will naturally come to an end and new queens will settle down to hibernate over the winter. 🧵1/8

Wood Spurge is easily overlooked as an attraction for pollinators because the green flowers dont look particularly enticing, but they can be good for recording solitary bees in woodland. The garden form is worth keeping an eye on too.

Did u know? Bees create a positive electrical charge when they fly. As flowers have an opposite, negative electrical charge, when a bee lands on flowers, negative is attracted to positive and the bee gets covered in pollen. Genius!

Common Knapweed (Centaurea nigra) should be one of the most abundant wildflowers in grasslands where it’s became scarce through most of Liverpool! To help out this beaut beastie, I’ve started collecting seed for some of the grasslands being restored for wildlife nearby 😍🌱
@BBCNews This story is bollocks. The plant grows everywhere and unless eaten is not a huge risk. There are far more temping objects for kids to put in their mouths! Lots of common garden plants are poisonous if eaten in quantity. Snowberry, foxgloves, euphorbia, yew all grow nr schools
A 'must see' since I first saw an illustration in a beetle guide, the Alpine Longhorn Rosalia alpina was even more stunning than I had expected! Lainzer Tiergarten, Vienna, Austria - fairly common there on cut Beech logs.
Male bumbles are now out & about 🔍 Look out for them on open flowers such as knapweed, thistles and Bramble. Four of the common species have dashing yellow moustaches too! 🐝📸 Buff-tailed, Heath, White-tailed BB & Red-tailed Cuckoo @BumblebeeTrust
Swifts are my favourite bird, yet their populations are collapsing. Swift bricks are a cheap & easy way to protect our bird species - I’m urging Govt to make them compulsory in new homes. Great to meet @WriterHannahBT ahead of Parliament debate, who worked so hard to secure it!
