Welcome to "The Bumblebee Gallery"

Hello all, and welcome to my new blog.

Its a very basic blog where I will post pictures of the Bumblebees that I see. Hopefully from here others will contribute with their own pictures of these fascinating, yet so very important insects.

Bees have steadily declined over the years, and it is only now that we are realising how important they are to our environment and very existence.

Hopefully these sightings and pictures will encourage others to take a little more time to notice the plight of the Bumblebee.

Thanks for reading.

Danny.

The first picture is the background picture, which is a Tree Bumbleebee, Bombus Hypnorum. They collonised in the UK as late as 2001. Mainly found in the South East, they originate from France!
