ALERT: Invasive Asian Yellow-Legged Hornet (Vespa velutina) found in the UK

Well I have somehow managed to skip writing for the entirety of this summer! But I can assure you all it’s because I’ve been up to some very exciting bee-related things – all to be revealed soon. Unfortunately this big piece of news could not be avoided! The highly invasive Asian yellow-legged hornet (Vespa velutina) has now arrived in the UK. For all those non-science nerds, an invasive species���

Bad news for UK bees 🙁🐝 this species is highly invasive and is a predator of our native bees and other insects. Keep your eyes open and report your sighting to: alertnonnative@CEO.ac.uk Do not approach a nest or get too close to the hornet if you see one. If you can take a photo and send the location and photo to the email address above. #savethebees #bee #blog #blogger #urbanbeeandbee #environment #conservation #invasivespecies #alert #nature #bees #hornet #dangerous

Good and bad news bee lovers! Seven species of yellow-faced bees (not pictured here!) native to Hawaii have become the first bees added to the US federal list of endangered and threatened species. Bad news because it's tragic any bee should even make it onto such a list but good news the problem has been recognised and hopefully actions will take place! In my photo here, there's a lovely bumblebee I saw in the summer. So fluffy and wonderful! #savethebees #conservation #bee #blog #blogger #urbanbeeandbee #hawaii #native #wildlife #nature #environment #bumblebee #savethebumblebees #insect #naturephotography #macro #photography #wildlifephotography (at Drummond Gardens and Castle)

Inside my bumblebee nest in the lawn. There was only 2 bees left at this time of year. Lots of changes this summer, I've moved home again and had to leave my lovely bees! But my new place has a mossy lawn so I'm hoping to see some bee nests in the spring. #savethebees #bumblebee #nest #bee #blog #blogger #urbanbeeandbee #hummel #abeille #bien #abeja #bees #bumblebees #nature #photography #naturephotography #amazing #wildlife #wildlifephotography #urban #conservation #pollinators

As we're slowly approaching Autumn 🍁🍂there are definitely less bees around. But I was very lucky to spot this little one whilst out hiking in Aberdeenshire 🐝 #bumblebee #hiking #Aberdeen #Scotland #savethebees #blog #urbanbeeandbee #blogger #love #bees #bumblebees #nature #photography #naturelovers #naturephotography #macro #macrophotography #insect #abeja #abeille #hummel #bien (at Bennachie)

I'm not a big fan of ragwort (Senecio jacobaea) because of their toxicity to horses but these ones I found at the beach safely away from horses. The bees absolutely love them! They are quite pretty when I look at just the flowers. I can't help but wonder if their pollen or nectar has any toxins harmful to bees... #savethebees #ragwort #yellow #pretty #flowers #bees #bee #blog #urbanbeeandbee #abejorro #abeja #abeille #wildflowers #macro #photography #macrophotography #naturephotography #nature (at Aberdeen City Beach)
