Still finding queen bumblebees foraging for food before hibernating

  1. A lot of urban environments are now food deserts for wildlife

  2. We’ve got a wasp nest in the bricks on the outside of our kitchen. We called the council out to sort it and they said “oh don’t worry, they’ll die off soon when the weather turns”

    WHY WONT THEY DIE?! I’ve ejected six of the angry buggers from my kitchen today alone

  3. I had mosquitos in my room last night cos i had to open the window after an 18 degree hike in temp in one day. They must think it’s spring. Now they’ll die and there’ll be less to pollinate when the flowers come

  4. How can you tell it’s a queen bee when she is on her own? Are they the only bees flying around now?

  5. Won’t it sting you if you’re tugging around with it like that 

  6. Yes, my nails aren’t great. I’ve just got over a 2 week bout of gastroenteritis so forgive me if I’m not expertly manicured.

  7. Most amazing creatures. Love the new one pound coin design.

  8. Oh wow! Is that who they are!? I saw a huge one two weeks ago on the concrete ground outside work. I was the only one in and she seemed dead at first. I got some honey from upstairs and put it in front of her and she was walking around some time later.

    I thought it was such a strange time to see a bee.

  9. Hope you found somewhere nice for her to get warm ❤️ I’m going to spend the next hour examining my nails because what even are these comments

  10. What a magnificent creature. I hope she finds a home for winter.

  11. A beautiful chunky bumblebee, it makes me really upset that I keep hearing about their numbers decreasing year by year, I love watching these girlies buzzing around flower beds during the summer months
