La abeja de la hiedra (Colletes hederae) excava en el suelo para construir su nido. En este vídeo vemos a una hembra trabajando con empeño en esa labor. Lo que sucedió después… es otra historia.

There we were, #Commonwasp, #Comma, #Ivybee and I sniffing around all the lovely globe-like umbels along the Ivy-draped lanes just north of #Rottingdean and finding all the buds still tightly closed.
I sensed their patience was far greater than mine!
All except for Ivy bee maybe 🙄

Nice close-up of the Ivy bee. Much more dainty than a honey bee but still perfectly formed. It's a huge crop, so I was surprised at how clear it remained. Imagine this as a giant print on your wall! I'd be 'buzzing' with that...

Ivy bees always look so perfect. Like smart diddy honey bees. This time of year, they can be seen around ivy flowers, although this lovely girl was on my giant Yarrow 😳

Ivy bee, Colletes hederae. The feathery hairs on the abdomen of the ivy sand bee can be clearly seen here. This species was described in 1993 by Westrich and Schmidt.

Why no #IvyBee on ivy in the neighbourhood in #Penclawdd? knew they've been on South #Gower. Gave up, wandered around this lovely neutral grassland, only to find agg of frenzied male Ivy Bees searching under rosettes for females (last wk in the sun) recorded @sewbrec @bwars
Why waste time looking at boring #Gower view (left) when you can watch #IvyBee C hederae nesting aggregation in this cliff face (right)?
