Celebrate bees @RHSWisley on #Countryfile tonight at 5pm on @BBCOne! @HamzaYassin3 will meet our beekeeper, uncover the microbiome of honeybee hives, while @Sam_Kinghorn joins our wildlife specialist to discover bumblebees’ favourite nectar sources 🐝 bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
[new paper] Pollinators increase crop yield, but measuring their effect is complicated. Here we 1) synthesize almost 100 studies globally: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11… and 2) provide a dynamic paper to update results as more studies emerge: ibartomeus.github.io/CropPollinatio…

Pollen is essential food for bees, but we know so little about it's availability at a landscape-scale... Our new paper in @NewPhyt led by @ElBiology quantifies pollen at a species, habitat and landscape scale, helping us improve landscapes for bees! doi.org/10.1111/nph.19…🧵
Join #BuglifeScotland's #PollinatorsAlongTheTweed Conservation Officer, Kate, & Buglife #BLines Officer, Rachel, for FIT Count Training! 🗓️ Monday 22 April 🕙 10:30-13:00 📌 East Gate Theatre, EH45 8AD 🐝Learn how to monitor pollinator in your local green spaces. #PAtT
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?
Save the date - 19 June. For our free online 2024 Conference the theme will be pollinator-friendly actions & features Local Authorities, our All-Ireland counterparts, Nature Networks, NHS grounds, and a fascinating project in Arnhem. e: [email protected] for details
My local Kenilworth Wood seemed to wake up this weekend and provided some lovely hoverfly encounters including Megasyrphus erraticus, Criorhina ranunculi, Fagisyrphus cinctus and Parasyrphus annulatus amongst other things.
Beautiful day for FIT Counts today in Akrotiri Cyprus with the students from the Grammar School @PoMScheme @UKLadybirds @DavidRoyBRC @UKBCFs
This year's @PoMScheme Flower-Insect Timed Count season has started - but please wait for suitable weather before starting your #pollinator counts! 🪰🐝🪲🦋 Find out more about taking part: ukpoms.org.uk/taking-part #DataNature

The Arabica coffee story exemplifies the reach of pollination services. Income of small farmers, revenues of developing countries, conservation of tropical forests, let alone your morning caffeine kick. More in Athayde's blog @ scottishpollinators.wordpress.com/2024/04/02/but…
🦋The latest results from the annual UK Butterfly Monitoring Scheme @UKBMSLive are published ukbms.org/official-stati… Overall, the latest findings are mixed. Around half of species at monitored sites had a better than average year, while the other half were below average.
This April look out for these butterflies and moths in your gardens and local green spaces 🌷🌱🦋 Discover more species with tips on how you can help them by signing up to our monthly enewsletter 👉 butrfli.es/2Td2KQg #SaveButterflies #MothsMatter
April welcomes the return of the Big Eight 🎱🐝 #BumblebeesAreBack This month, some queens will emerge from hibernation. Already active queens will produce their first daughters – the workers 💼 Have you spotted any bumblebees over the Easter weekend?

You know spring has arrived when you see a woodland awash with bluebells💙 These bell-shaped beauties are a bumblebee buffet🐝🍴 They are also a sign of ancient woodland–woods that have existed since at least 1600 and provide one of the UK’s most valuable, biodiverse habitats🌳
Celebrate bees @RHSWisley on #Countryfile tonight at 5pm on @BBCOne! @HamzaYassin3 will meet our beekeeper, uncover the microbiome of honeybee hives, while @Sam_Kinghorn joins our wildlife specialist to discover bumblebees’ favourite nectar sources 🐝 bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
@merylbatchelder Absolutely this!! Our students will be taking part in the @PoMScheme survey again this spring & I’d encourage others to do the same! Why can’t pupils get involved and contribute to climate research?!
A wonderful #FITCOUNTS training with 5 keen attendees turning up despite the weather to learn about using the @PoMScheme to help make our sites FIT for Wildlife w/ @HogFriendly 4once I completely 4got to get people photos! But this cutie was found- a possible Common Mourning Bee?
@PoMScheme well under way for this year! If youre on our lovely @marjonuni campus, spend 10 minutes in the sunshine and do this ukpoms.org.uk/fit-counts?dm_…
It’s official - as ecologists have long suspected, insects are more active at night. The effect is largely due to strongly nocturnal communities of aquatic insects. In terrestrial ecosystems, especially in temperate regions, insects are mainly day-active nature.com/articles/s4146…
[new paper] Pollinators increase crop yield, but measuring their effect is complicated. Here we 1) synthesize almost 100 studies globally: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11… and 2) provide a dynamic paper to update results as more studies emerge: ibartomeus.github.io/CropPollinatio…
WOW 😍 We have 299 of your hotels registered with The Big Bee Hotel Experiment! Challenge: Help us reach 350 by the end of this week! Share and shout about our most popular project yet 🐝 thebuzzclub.uk/thebigbeehotel… @wildcommunityuk @DaveGoulson @EllenRotheray @SussexUni @LNHSoc
My first sighting of a male Cheilosia chrysocoma this year @BBOWT's Dry Sandford Pit, nr Abingdon. #FliesofBritainandIreland Must look for it at Chilswell Valley nr Oxford as it's often seen there as well. A great mimic of Tawny Mining Bee @gailashton @Ecoentogeek @StevenFalk1
Wow! How amazing is this? 👇
Can #bumblebee queens endure periods of inundation while overwintering underground? New Biology Letters paper from Dr. @SabRondeau suggests that hibernating queens can survive up to 1 week submerged under water: doi.org/10.1098/rsbl.2… #OpenAccess #Pollinators @RSocPublishing
Last year @jones44832 and I had 8 days surveying insects in Upper Deeside between Muir of Dinnet NNR and Mar Lodge Estate. The report describing where we went and the circa 600 species we found can be found here: researchgate.net/publication/37…
Taking part in @theNPMS this year? You'll find Lords & Ladies in woodlands across most of UK apart from northern Scotland & a few other places where (intriguingly) it's absent. Want to learn more about this wild plant? Check its #PlantAtlas2020 page: plantatlas2020.org/atlas/2cd4p9h.…
Species spot - Lords & Ladies, Arum maculatum has arrow shaped leaves with a wrinkled surface. The club shaped spike releases a urine-like odour attracting flies for pollination. The fruit – a spike of bright orange berries – can be a common sight in woodlands in autumn.
We are very excited for our Citizen Science Virtual Symposium with the Biological Recording Company @KeironDBrown on the 16th May! Speakers: @DaveGoulson @LJBees @BethBees @yanetsepulveda @EllenRotheray More information and booking link here: biologicalrecording.co.uk/2024/02/29/cit…
Pollen is essential food for bees, but we know so little about it's availability at a landscape-scale... Our new paper in @NewPhyt led by @ElBiology quantifies pollen at a species, habitat and landscape scale, helping us improve landscapes for bees! doi.org/10.1111/nph.19…🧵
Join #BuglifeScotland's #PollinatorsAlongTheTweed Conservation Officer, Kate, & Buglife #BLines Officer, Rachel, for FIT Count Training! 🗓️ Monday 22 April 🕙 10:30-13:00 📌 East Gate Theatre, EH45 8AD 🐝Learn how to monitor pollinator in your local green spaces. #PAtT
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?
Springing into spring like... Moths come in many different shapes and sizes! Just take a look at the majestic Green Longhorn (Adela reaumurella) 💚 📸 : Tim Melling #MothsMatter
Save the date - 19 June. For our free online 2024 Conference the theme will be pollinator-friendly actions & features Local Authorities, our All-Ireland counterparts, Nature Networks, NHS grounds, and a fascinating project in Arnhem. e: [email protected] for details
My local Kenilworth Wood seemed to wake up this weekend and provided some lovely hoverfly encounters including Megasyrphus erraticus, Criorhina ranunculi, Fagisyrphus cinctus and Parasyrphus annulatus amongst other things.
