"Little free libraries are turning into 'Little Bee Libraries' to give pollinators a cozy place to rest"
#Bees #Libraries #Insects

'Little Bee Libraries' turn book boxes into adorable pollinator sanctuaries
In addition to neighborhood plant swaps, trinket exchanges, dioramas, and more, Rachael Harms Mahlandt proposed a new craft idea that helps pollinators thrive.

"Scientists discover some bees have tiny magnetic, internal compasses helping them navigate the world"
#Bees #Insects #Animals

New study: Some bees have tiny magnetic, internal compasses to help them navigate
Some animals are able to use iron-based magnetic compounds to detect and navigate via the Earth’s magnetic field, a sense called magnetoreception. Some bee species are among them.

While the former images of today's #insect visitor were taken with a cellphone, here are some later shots of the same or another specimen with a real camera and close-up lens - and I (and Google Lens :-) now think it's a species of the #Halictidae #bee genus #Lasioglossum (Schmalbienen in German). There are 1800 species known, though, some 90 of which exist in Germany ...

Here's the first bee to visit my mud pan. Possibly a Lasioglossum based on the relatively sparse hairs on abdominal tergites. It's interesting that she took a water break during foraging. #bees #lasioglossum #halictidae #hymenoptera #insects #nature #inaturalist #macro #pollen #pollination https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/363160234
