Whilst helping daddy work on Rockstar, I spotted a poorly looking bumblebee in the middle of the workshop floor.

We carefully moved it into a jar, it was moving it’s legs very slowly. I was able to have a really good look at it before we released it on some flowering heather. Early flowering heather is really important for wildlife as there’s not much bee food (nectar) around in winter or early spring.

We discovered online that Queen Bumblebees hibernate. I learnt about hibernating very recently when I found a butterfly in my bedroom. I didn’t know there were different types of bee, there is around 270 different types of bee in the UK.
