Insects on the Ceanothus





Just a quick post to say that it has been lovely to see insects making the most of the pollen on our Ceanothus. Honey bees and others have all been busy, as you can see from the bulging pollen baskets, sometimes known as sacs. I have no idea what the last insect might be...

STOP PRESS: I have only just seen that, serendipitously, the app for counting bees is being launched today, 19 May 2017. Do take a look at the Great British Bee Count site.
  • For more on bees, do take a look at these BUZZ pages (and perhaps especially the flip-the-pages book if you scroll down) from Val Littlewood at Pencil and Leaf.
