A conservation red list, not of species but of *taxonomists*. Too little funding and too few positions mean we are ill-prepared to measure the biodiversity we are losing.

The Tree bumblebee (Bombus hypnorum) is a relative newcomer to the UK but is now a common sight in gardens, parks and woodland.

They first came over from mainland Europe in 2001 and have settled in as one of our own. Luckily, they don't compete with our native bumblebees for nesting space as they are our only species that like to nest up high in bird boxes, roof spaces, and you guessed it, trees! 🌲
