Did you know that the bees that need saving are NOT honeybees?
Honeybees are the dairy cows of bees. People brought them over from Europe to make us honey.
The problem with honeybees, esp in resource-limited ecosystems (like hey! cities!) is that they compete with our native bees for food.
The day I discovered there were SHINY GREEN BEES was a memorable one for me!
Ok #bugsky and #invertebrate lovers, letβs post some gorgeous native bees to boost this excellent thread
