Buzz

The warm weather yesterday brought out lots of new species for the year. On a bramble leaf was this small bee, Halictus rubicundus, which somewhat surprisingly appears to be the first record for the lodge. It's the 14th bee species I've recorded so far this year, just a couple of hundred more to find!
