When male #bumblebees leave home they never look back!
They travel far from the nest - up to six miles - in order to avoid inbreeding when mating.
(A practice some people around these parts should take note of😂).

Bigger #bumblebees are more likely to go out foraging in low light such as dawn.
Why?
They have bigger eyes than smaller sister workers in the colony, and indeed other species of #bees, allowing them to see better in dim light.

The rarer species of bee, often specialists, are more likely to be threatened with extinction from loss of habitat, poisoning and now climate breakdown.
Their importance to plant diversity should not be underestimated.
