My friend has a #nesting box fitted with a camera and most years, after the #birds have fledged (and sometimes before) a #TreeBumbleBee (Bombus Hypnorum) will often take up residence and use the old nesting materials within which to lay her eggs. #nature #wildlife #wildlifephotography #bees #bee #QueenBee #garden #environment

It's the #beeday! The #TreeBumblebee likes to nest in the holes of the trees, and also in nestboxes and in buildings. #Bumblebees have a special tool for cleaning their antennaes. #WildBees #pollinators
