Aashna Ramani, one of our Bee Education Interns from this spring, just hosted a kids’ mason bee house workshop at her local library. The participants built 24 mason bee houses out of recycled mugs and paper straws! ???? #bees?#education?#science

Do you lower your expectations after being let down? As it turns out, bees do, too. New research from Newcastle University shows that physically stressed bumblebees are less likely to expect high rewards when faced with ambiguous choices. In an active choice judgment bias test, stressed bees chose low-reward locations more often, suggesting a pessimistic bias similar to emotion-like states seen in other animals. This study sheds light on how stress influences insect cognition and behavior, offering new perspectives for pollinator conservation.

Do you know how to tell the difference between old and young bees?
How to tell the difference between young and old bumblebees: ?? Faded colouring from time in the sun. ???? Bald spot, especially on top of the thorax, where hairs have rubbed off. ?? Uneven wing edges. These are signs of everyday wear and tear, not just age-related issues. In spring, queen bumblebees are box-fresh, having spent winter tucked up in hibernation. Workers and males, on the other hand, are out and about in the sunshine, foraging from flowers and bashing through vegetation – therefore, they show these signs more quickly. ?? Tom Luck

Did you know that bees can see hidden "landing pads" on flowers? Our Bee Education interns interviewed Craig P. Burrows, the author of "What the Bees See: A Honeybee's Eye View of the World," and reimagined the world from a bee's point of view. Craig has spent nearly a decade perfecting his craft, capturing the mesmerizing, luminescent beauty of flowers through ultraviolet-induced visible fluorescence (UVIVF) photography. His book not only showcases these otherworldly images but also delves into the fascinating science of bees, their history and their crucial role in our ecosystem. In this Q&A, we get an insider's look at Craig's creative process and the important messages he hopes to convey through his work.
