We don't need much persuading to celebrate the humble Dandelion for #wildflowerhour @BioDataCentre records show this native wildflower was the most popular food source for bees on the island of Ireland in 2023 #DandelionChallenge #InternationalDayoftheDandelion 📷Cathal Noonan
Delighted to get a video from Dave Suddaby on the Mullet today of the first Great Yellow Bumblebee of the season feeding on apple blossom, nearly three weeks earlier than last year

If you hear a loud buzz nearby, have a look around. It could be a nest-searching bumblebee queen 👑 You might see her flying low over the ground, often in a zig zag pattern, as she investigates the ground for a good nesting spot 🏡 Have you spotted any nest-searching queens?
So far only recorded in the east if the country - but doesn't mean it is not in the west

A bilingual children’s book ‘An Bhumbóg Mhór Bhuí ar Strae’ (‘The Great Yellow Bumblebee Goes Astray’),was launched in Áras Inis Gluaire, Belmullet. In it a bee searches for sustenance on her way to beautiful biodiverse Erris and Belmullet. More: westernpeople.ie/news/new-bumbl…

Hi folks. Corncrake season has begun. The first few birds have landed with more on the way this week (no doubt). If you hear a corncrake then please report it here: corncrakelife.ie/report-a-cornc… Let's hope 2024 is a good year for our birds.
Please share this survey for small and organic growers, so that @agriculture_ie can further understand the value of these growers and help inform future policy decisions. ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runne… Deadline is 15th April.
Míle🐝to @WesternPeople for their feature on our recent book launch! #biodiversity #gaeltacht #greatyellowbumblebee #mayonorth #belmullet #bealanmhuirthead #maigheo #mulletpeninsula westernpeople.ie/news/new-bumbl…
April is #LetDandelionsBee month for the @PollinatorPlan. Dandelions are the number one favourite food for Ireland's wild bees. Pesticides not only rob our pollinators of vital food, they can also contaminate drinking water sources. Sit back and enjoy a colourful April!
Become a citizen scientist & help us learn more about pollinators with a Flower-Insect-Timed count No expertise needed - all you need is a spare 10 minutes, a comfy spot, and a patch of Dandelions 🐝 There's even a free app💚 Find out more here➡️ tinyurl.com/56zxchb6
Hot off the press! Our new publication, an Identification Guide to Ireland's Regulated Invasive Alien Plant Species is now available through @BioDataCentre Great collab w/ independent ecologists & @BioDataCentre, @NBGGlasnevinOPW, @NPWSIreland, @UCDHort. shop.biodiversityireland.ie/products/irela…
Species #2: Grey (or Ashy) Mining Bee Keep a look out for this distinctive solitary bee, females are particularly fond of foraging on Willow and Dandelion. They're an excellent pollinator for fruit trees and Rape. Record your sightings ⬇️ bit.ly/4a4dSRD
Don't forget, if you're interested in Bees or Hoverflies, the following two courses are running this summer at @microwildhq Check out microwild.org/events for more!

A delightful afternoon looking for invertebrates on the Willow Blossom in Union Wood, Collooney, Co Sligo. A few highlights were Criorhina floccosa, Myopa buccata,Criorhina berberina & Cheilosia albipila. A probable Conops vesicularis was missed which resulted in swearing 🤬 😅.
Please don’t mow or spray the dandelions. They are a lifeline for pollinators including bees, butterflies, hoverflies. They support over 50 insect species. Our little film shows the life in a small patch 🐝 More: bit.ly/428s34x
