Following yesterdays sunny spell of weather today has turned cloudy and cold. A walk in the garden led to the discovery of a queen Red-tailed bumblebee seemingly in distress at the base of our full flowering barberry bush.Of course the bee was fine as it is just having a rest.However she could well do with some sort of reviving in order to continue her pollen collecting.So a small mixture of clean water and sugar proved to be just the ticket. Almost immediately she moved onto the saucer and seemed to enjoy the feed.Revived she then crawled off and disappeared into the border.
