Suzieq1402 JohnMuirTrust Team4Gardens No this isn't a Great Yellow bumblebee - it looks like a male Early bumblebee :) You can use our online ID guide to help you with your identification: https://t.co/wz1AiPlcXk
bardseyben Thank you so much for going out to look for our beautiful Great Yellow bumblebee. What a shame that you had no luck this time :( Hopefully next time you will be more fortunate!
howdenmeadows Unfortunatley not... and you are not likely to find any Great yellows in the Northumberland area anymore, sadly. This could be either a Common carder or a rarer Moss carder bee, however we would need to see the bee close up and from a few angles to confirm.
lizsilversmith gordonpr1c3 BuzzingWales Potentially a Red mason bee (Osmia bicornis) but would need to see it from a few other angles to confirm. For more info on Red masons see: https://t.co/14edWY4DVm
notaylott BBCSpringwatch Interesting - Bumblebees sometimes consume the sugary honeydew excreted by aphids, which would explain them returning to the same spot and the rolled up/damaged leaves.
BirdsBikesBoots BBCSpringwatch Great footage - she may have made them earlier or potentially another short-tongued bumblebee will have. Honeybees (which have very short tongues) are often seen using holes after bumbles have made them too!
RT BuzzingPeak: What a team! 💕So proud of everyone BumblebeeTrust. Staff and our amazing volunteers have spoken to over 2500 people about #bumblebees thanks to funding from HeritageFundEM 🐝The_RHS ChatsworthHouse perkins58
