SOOO MANY SLEEPING BLUE BEES!!!🐝💙

It was so amazing to see a large group of Blue-banded Bees roosting together at night in the rainforests of Cairns!! 😍🌳

The boys will all sleep together on the skinniest sticks for protection, with any movement on the branch alerting them to wake up and buzz away! 🐝

Such a special moment to witness!🥰

Hice un curso gratis sobre polinización dirigido al público en general. Este es el primero de 10 videos. Espero que le sirva a quien esté interesado 🙌🏽

Any recommendations of entomology equipment suppliers in the UK? #entomology #uk #AcademicChatter #ukinsects

Euherbstia excellens (Andrenidae, ).
An interestingly patterned bee with relatively dark metallic blue. This is a rare genus that has been found in a few places in Chile. In recent years most commonly on the road from Santiago to Farellones.

@organizat_behav @AcademicChatter It makes a lot of sense and I still hadn't thought about that! Thank you very much!

What skills/courses do you think are a good investment as an #ecologist or #biologist for career development? @AcademicChatter

I have been illustrating a British Pollinator poster. It’s amazing how many different insects help pollinate flowering plants, including lots of beetles! #pollinator #beetle ⁦@Bathscape⁩ ⁦@WildlifeTrusts⁩

Here is my favorite outdoor picture from 2019. Wasp queen polistes with the first offspring.

Second crib sheet updated - this time the red-tails...

If any of these are unclear or you think could be more accessible, please let me know and I will see what I can do.

Today I want to introduce you to /Andrena ramosa/. A new bee species to science described at our study sites in Aznalcazar, within a Doñana Protected Area: https://t.co/xlMAIhVtbZ @ebdonana

[Ame Hernández @Bee_ologist]

@_swyst @BugmanTim Hymenoptera for sure, those mandibles! Because of where the antennae are I'd say it's a wasp

[Ame Hernández @Bee_ologist]

Very happy for this collaboration with @WICCornwall Also my first podcast in English! Go give it a listen! @UniExeCornwall @UniExeCEC #bees

I wish all insects went around like pokemon & yelled out their scientific name as their call & I could just have a note pad & record em all down without having to take them back to the lab

[Ame Hernández @Bee_ologist]

This is important to share so we can do something about it! As a Mexican starting in academia I have already faced some of these issues but starting this discussion is already one step forward to change https://t.co/uWxrEKAmGz

Underside of rove beetle foot. Very grippy. Nice example of convergence when compared with structures on gecko feet (right).

Quedius dilatatus

@UniExeCornwall @FalmouthWeek I'm so excited to be one of the speakers for this! Come along to have some fun learning about science!

I probably forgot about a lot of things, but thanks to @thomasnprice and @Bee_ologist for all the hard work and the great company #fieldwork over
