Wow, when the weather has gotten warmer suddenly there was a large flock of bees on my window (it's a damp natural corridor in front of my window as right in front is a neighbour's house with netting, so it's always partial shade). Today I was walking in front of my window and suddenly from the garden floor (filled with tiny pebbles and grass) the bees came up in thousands, flying around me. I had no idea why they were on the ground, and this explained it really well. Didn't know they nest on the ground, thank you for the knowledge! Now am feeling bad because I might've trampled on their nest...
Great content yet again! I e been apart of the Bee’n’bee project for a few years now and it’s been amazing seeing multiple hotels showing up in suburban areas!
Amazing bee footage, well done to the camera man or women ... and well done to Sophie for covering this great story, it was only approximately 7 years back that I realised how important it was to have bees in my garden. 🐝🍆🌸🌶🐝🥕🌺🥒🐝🍅🌼🧄🐝🍓
I have found that clay cracks and falls apart even when contained in a besser brick or bamboo. Now I use clay, sand, soil/mud mix 1:1:1 and it does not crack and won't fall apart. Still should be kept under cover to prevent rain erosion.
Im about 20 mins from the cbd. After starting my garden I started seeing native bees come in and was shocked. Ive added 2 native bee hotels.....but not sure if theyre being used lol
