Bees

We are not experts and have tried to identify the bees we’ve spotted as best we can.  It’s likely we’ve got some wrong, especially since there’s 250 different types of bees and bumblebees in the UK.  If you find errors or know we’ve got an identification wrong, please add a comment to let us know.
