First post here in which I'll give a small introduction of myself.
I'm a watercolour and linoprint artist inspired by nature.
I live in Amsterdam, the Netherlands and find most of my nature treasures during my walks at the Amsterdam Forest

Carrying heavy pollen loads on the legs makes #bumblebee flight more stable in windy conditions; but in calm weather bees with nectar-full honey stomachs are more nimble than those carrying pollen loads.

Bumblebee?
You are a bit early. Where did you hide?

You know that spring is finding its way into the year when bumble bee queens are floating all around your garden.

Zum #Weltfrauentag passt es ja vielleicht nur bedingt, aber ich hoffe, dass sich eine Königin herablässt und diesen Palast bezieht um ein Volk zu gründen! 😍

First bumblebee of the year for me here in Glasgow. Yet another sign that we're now well into Spring.

A full #bumblebee pollen basket can contain over one million pollen grains.
The colour of the pollen basket is indicative of the flowers upon which the bee has foraged.

Evening folks.
This here is Thursday’s fact as I’ve been off-grid for a couple of days. Did I miss anything? Let me guess. I’m sensing that…Putin’s bitch and Putin’s bitch’s bitch proved how disgusting they are yet again.

When it comes to foraging, larger female #bumblebee workers are better than their smaller sisters. They return more #nectar, fly at lower temperatures, can probe deeper #flowers and may be less likely to be preyed upon.

Bee in my crocus!

That is all.

"The power of our somewhat hands-off approach has been vindicated by the massive increase in #bumblebee numbers. What’s more, the number of bumblebee species has doubled from five to 10."

How Rewilding Denmarkfield Has Brought Back the Bees

Rewilding Denmarkfield has been fairly hands-off with its work. The result: an abundance of bees and native plants finding their way to the land.

#Bumblebee population increases 116 times over in 'remarkable' #Scotland #rewilding project

"‘The sound of traffic and a uniform sea of barley have been replaced by the most beautiful #meadows, full of #wildflowers, young saplings and the buzz of #bees’"

by Katharine Hay, 26 Nov 2024

"The bumblebee population has made an impressive comeback in a developed area by increasing to 116 times what it was two years ago thanks to a nature restoration group.

"#RewildingDenmarkfield, a 90-acre project based just north of Perth, has been working to restore nature to green spaces in an increasingly built up area for the past two years."

Bumblebee Love.

For most species of #bumblebee the queens will usually only mate with one male.
Most males never actually get to mate successfully but if given the chance will indeed mate with more than one queen!

Huge bumblebees in beautiful flowers

(August 12th, 2024)

Mornin’.

Here’s a stunning #bumblebee queen.

Foraging on a #flower.

She doesn’t wish to be the richest being.
She doesn’t want to be a president.
She doesn’t yearn for unfettered power.
She’s not vindictive or cunning.
She is in no way a threat to other species or her own.
Quite the opposite in fact.

She’s familiar with her immediate surroundings.
And that’s enough.
She merely needs to be allowed to exist and thrive for her short life.
Her drive is to continue her species and along…
