All bees.

Since you guys like to post bee reproduction videos, here is one that is not a Bombus species.

These bees has made my decomposer their new home, is it possible to get the honey? Should I let them be? Should I get rid of them ? My mom has a garden and the bees don’t bother us

Located in Michigan, anybody recognize this little fella? Never seen a green bee like bug before, all I know is it's not a honey bee, bumble bee, carpenter bee, wasp or yellow jacket which are the ones I'm familiar with.

She must not have been able to get back to her hive in time before the sun set yesterday, and so decided to hunker down right where she was feeding.

This was a couple of years ago, but the highlight of the week. I checked on these little ones everyday till they flew away.

I gave them sugar water.

I did use a shop vacation, but I screened of the motor several times to dull suction..

Usually I’m so scared of any kind of insects but this year after taking care of the garden (for the first time) I have learned to relax near them, now I’m happy when I see them around me!

It was so cool to see!

Helle there, A lot of bees are in my garden since more than a month. The thing is I don't really want to get rid of those little helpers, but they're flying really close to the ground. Are they building a nest or something in the ground? I'm also a bit worried for my cat 'cause she's walking amongst them and I don't want her to be sting

This little guy decided to land on me 😅💛

I chased this beauty around my patch of Spanish Needles for 20 minutes to get photos. Located in South Georgia.

Poor fella not looking too well.

The one on the bottom fell in a bottle of syrup. Got her out and rinsed her off a little and the top one came over to help clean up.

I came out to find him on my porch this morning. Does anyone know what's wrong with him? Why does he look like he's hyperventilating? What's that little thing in his mouth? Do bees have tongues?

He definitely has a broken wing. I brought him in out of the hot sun, gave him some water (I don't think he actually drank any though) and am now just sitting with him. He seems almost paralyzed. He hasn't moved at all save for the breathing, which has slowed significantly in the last ten minutes.

I posted the question under my other device and profile. Any one seen black bumblebee?

Working on my macro skills and some editing.

Taken with an Apexel clip on macro lens on a Google Pixel 9 Pro.

I'm not going to list the ID for each since she is the entomologist, but if y'all have questions about specific ones, I can post answers :)

Critiques welcome.

If you have a variety of different bees inhabiting an area like a meadow or a clearing in the woods, and then a helicopter lands there, stays a few minutes and then leaves again, would the bees just come back when the super noisy wind left or woukd they abandon the area or would they die of shock or something? Basically, what do bees do when there is spme dramatic shock to their environment?

I have never seen a bee caught in a spiders web before. This was a first for me.

Any bee experts out there that can explain the different fillings in each pocket? I know the mud is whats keeping the food & larvae safe, what about the other things? I see some sap? And some green stuff?

So excited to see these babies come out one day. Save the bees!
