When #bumblebee nests are located within 1km of a high quality food source, flowering throughout their lifecycle, the colonies tend to yield more daughter queens that survive to establish new nests the following year.

A bumblebee can only fly for about 40 mins between feeding. These amazing pollinating insects are being hit hard by widespread habitat loss. So each nectar-rich flower you plant in a windowbox or in your garden or community green spaces could be the pit stop that saves a bee 🐝

Everybody quiet down now and get some sleep.
‘Sail on, silver girl, sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way…
See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water…’

Bumblebees have to learn how to get nectar from flowers. They will usually visit the same flowers every day as long as they keep finding nectar and pollen.
This is called flower or #pollinator constancy.
