Basic bee facts every day at 3pm.

Some #bumblebee workers don’t do the ‘direct flight to favoured flowers’ efficiency thing.
Instead these free spirited individuals roam freely foraging unfamiliar #flower patches helping spread plant genes more widely!

Of all my bee facts this is possibly my favourite - there are even bumblebees that don’t go with the crowd, the rules, the flow, which results in benefits for plants and the planet.
Here’s to all the disrupters for good! The awkward ones. The non-conformists. The brave!
