Bumblemania since 2017, you can ask me for bee photo's
We are just facing the beginning of climate change so I'm scared about the effects on nature.

Delft, Netherlands,these machines are widely used to efficiently cut, chop and suck away the vegetation on road verges. Removing nutrients included in the vegetation is a goal but no insect survives this!
The words on the side miss any connection to reality: flourishing verges, bees, biodiversity.

If I was younger and ecologist and British, I'd love it😍
Gill was very inspiring, but you'll probably have one more of her kind! 🥰

Second generation Bufftailed bumblebee queen foraging on Anemones in my backyard.
She is starting a new nest given the pollen on her hindlegs.
With autumn ahead and less flowers...

Three years ago at Canvey Wick, brown site next to the Thames estuary. After a wildfire new vegetation was flourishing with beautiful Shrill carder males foraging.

Alleen druk van buitenaf kan zorgen dat Israël stopt, dus ziet het er heel slecht uit voor Palestijnen. Een boek dat de hele aanloop naar de huidige situatie uitlegt is van Mark Mazower. De huidige situatie is begin 1900 al voorspeld door Joodse antizionisten in Polen. Lees dit boek!

In 2023 we found Bombus Brodmannicus in the French Alps. This bumblebee is dependend on pollen of Cerinthe Minor.
Amazingly fast bees, difficult to shoot beautifull coulours.
Three days later all was eaten by sheep sadly.

The ones with yellow are males, the black ones with red tails the workers. @bumblebeetrust.bsky.social

Being in love with a species doesn't mean they also like to meet you 😆....
The Great Yellow bumblebee queens on the Isle of Barra, Scotland hided between long grass foraging on Birdsfoot Trifoil. Some of the better shots.

Very interesting, a pollen corridor to connect plant patches, is that what you mean? In my wild flower city garden I try to bring randomly some new wild flower seeds to combat inbreeding of plants.

Shooting in the vegetation ith macro can give a warm cosy effect, I like that when it succeeds.
Again a moss Carder queen foraging on Birdsfoot Trifoil on Barra, Scotland last may.
Support the @bumblebeetrust.bsky.social , the bees are worth to be protected.
