RE: Would Someone Please Identify Which Bee These Are?

in #gardening7 years ago

@ocrdu thank you for watching the video
vertical filmer lol
these bees are cute
they don't sting ..no :D
he was probably nervous as I'm freaking huge

Sort:  

No, you're not, you're tiny 8-P. They can sting, but they won't unless you really annoy them. Friendly little beasts.
There's a woman in the local insektenwerkgroep who knows eveything about bees, I see her next Tuesday to exchange some photos, I'll ask her.

@ocrdu oh please do thank you very very much already!

She couldn't tell the exact species from your video, unfortunately. She says "sorry" 8-).
Here are some bee photos I took last weekend, you may like them: https://golos.io/ru--fotografiya/@ocrdu/digging-bees-pchely-kopayut-golog-first-posting

@ocrdu it's alright @afrog gave me the answer they're mining bees
he posted it on the comment
but hey, thank you very very much for checking it out still

Yes, I know, but there are very many species of those.

@ocrdu he also included it on his reply - with a link - it was blued but I forgot
Every day those guys say hello to me
and I have to deal with them everyday!
for two weeks probably .. from what I know they don't live long .. you'll see - later on :D

Andrena is a genus, not a species; there are over 1400 kinds of Andrena, 600 in Europe alone! Here's one I saw over the weekend, an Andrena vaga:

@ocrdu ohhhhh!!! wat schattig!
do you know that they smell like the last flower they sniffed? You should try picking up one and smell it.
