Spotted 5 or 6 on my morning ride this morning – isn’t it a bit early for them?

I thought that, we had a wasp in the house yesterday and saw one today – both looked a bit drowsy

no as soon as its warm enough they will be out looking for food and if they find any they will stay out

I saw a lovely juicy one yesterday in Scotlandshire and had my first tick on me today, that makes it officially that time of year.

officially that time of year

what juicy bumblebee and tick time? 🙂

I’ve seen bees around for the last couple of weeks, and there’s butterflies out, saw a Tortoiseshell yesterday, and a Brimstone today while out on the bike.

A tortoiseshell butterfly, yesterday.

i saw a few bumblebees today out on a ride including a huge one (was black with a orange/red rump) 🙂

I have a huge one living outside my office window, he flies into it sometimes, looks at me funny then flies away, been around for about 2 weeks now and he really is mahoosive. Don’t think I’ve seen a bumble that big before
