Bees pollinate one-third of all the food we eat. Without them, we'd lose apples, almonds, blueberries, cucumbers, and hundreds of other crops.
A single bee colony pollinates millions of flowers every day. When they move from flower to flower collecting nectar, they're accidentally transferring pollen—which is how plants reproduce.
This isn't just about our food. Wild plants need bees to survive too. When those plants disappear, so do the animals that depend on them for food and shelter. Entire ecosystems collapse without pollinators.
Bee populations are declining worldwide due to pesticides, habitat loss, and climate change. We're already seeing the effects—some farmers now hand-pollinate their crops because there aren't enough bees.
The math is simple: fewer bees = less food = ecological disaster.
That bee you see working in your garden isn't just busy. She's literally keeping our food system and natural world functioning.
We need to protect them. Our survival depends on theirs.

I make no apologies for repeating this message 🐝
If you see a bee of any description on the floor or not flying other than on a flowering plant, it is STARVING! You can help.
We are currently well into the 'June Gap' - the time between when the Spring flowering plants stop and the Autumn flowers start producing pollen and nectar.
You can help by mixing two parts sugar to one part water and offering the syrup to the bee. She (and they are mostly ladies) will happily drink from a teaspoon. You'll see her little black tongue as she drinks. It will take about 10 minutes for her to convert the syrup to energy, but she will fly away if you've helped her in time. The feeling you get on seeing her recovery and flight is well worth your time.
PLEASE NOTE - This is a temporary measure and 'First Aid' only. The Bees need diversity in their diet and need to pollinate plants in their search for food. I'm not suggesting we feed sugar to Bees as a regular thing.
NO HONEY PLEASE - Disease can be spread easily from colony to colony through this practice and you will do more damage than good. White sugar and water only please x
They can't thank you, so I will on their behalf.
Thanks a million xx 🐝🐝🐝🐝 Words are like bees!!!some create honey and others leave a sting

I don’t understand why the demotic platform and priority has not all along been environmental protection. Isn’t that something most people can relate to - cleaner, ultimately more affordable energy? Maybe next time?
