Did you know....

The UK has around half the world's population of Bluebell flowers.

 

I did know that. The Atlantic seaboard is the only place the common bluebell grows.

 

Did you know, that if Earth was the size of a basketball, all the water in the world would amount to two teaspoons.

We have bees coming out of the cracks in our lawn. Never knew they lived underground.

 

Most bees, apart from honey bees, live close to the ground or underneath it.Bumble bees love compost heaps and other rough bits of ground. Some bumbles make homes under garden sheds or patios.

 

In a few weeks , once it gets colder, they will disappear. Apart from honey bees, it is only the queen bees who survive the winter. The rest of the colony will die out.

Thanks for the info. It’s a shame they die off.
