Beehave yourself!
Another one of my personal favourite shots after the millions of in flight insect shots I’ve captured. Can anyone name both the species of bees for me or is one male and female of the same species 🤔

I think it’s a Green Shank found in Fowlmere my local reserve a few years ago in the Spring hide and just found it on my hard drive as I was looking back as having a cull.

A heavily dusted with sand Honey bee being carried in flight by a Beewolf wasp in @rspb headquarters The Lodge, Sandy Bedfordshire, England. I’ve yet to get over there this year but will the next bit of heat we get here.
