Bee. Everybody quiet down now and get some sleep. ‘We're lost in a cloud With too much rain We're trapped in a world That's troubled with pain But as long as a man Has the strength to dream He can redeem his soul and fly…’ #bee #goodnight #dream 🌍🐝

Late? Yep! Of course!🙄 But… It’s #Friday folks! And we made it through another week without some psychopathic dictator nuking the planet! Yay us! So have the best #weekend you can. You know the drill: Be #kind Be #gentle Be #true Be like #bees Oh… And don’t be a Nazi. Can’t forget that one.

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 52 #bumblebees have hearts but they are not ❤️ shaped. Bee hearts are straw shaped organs and run the entire length of the body. #bees #nature #wildlife 🌍🐝

Bees. ‘That’s all we’ve got time for this evening…so it’s goodnight from me…’ ‘And it’s #goodnight from him.’ ‘Goodnight!’ Dream good people got to lead, quiet people got to be heard, worried people got to relax, scared people got to be brave, and oppressed people got to be free. #bees #dream

‘All your sickness, I can suck it up Throw it all at me, I can shrug it off There's one thing, baby, I don't understand…’ ….This privileged pampered softhand rich-kid geriatric traitor is your type of man? Your king? Your go to guy? Really? Really? #beastsofburden

Feck it, let’s go early today. Sure why not…as there are no rules any more according to the King thing. Everything is up for grabs now…not just pussy. Countries. Resources. Truth. Decency. And in that the future of #bees. So don’t dare tell me I shouldn’t comment on this arsehole. It’s bees or him.

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 51 Bees don’t have lungs (or a nose!). Air enters the bee body through external openings along the body called spiracles. They rely upon a simple gas exchange system that bathes the body in oxygen and expels CO2 as waste. #bees #nature #bumblebees 🌍🐝

Bee. Everybody quiet down now and get some sleep. Dreams spin reality in and out of focus… #bee #goodnight #dream

Forgot to post this earlier. Had a purposefully forgetful day! Forgot social media was a thing. Forgot #nature was in such a desperate state. Forgot climate chaos. Forgot the world was normalising the utterances of a chicken-shit pampered compromised grotesque bully. It was bliss. Then I remembered.

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 50 One of the ways in which bumblebee queens maintain their dominance in the nest is by periodically head-butting the more dominant female workers. We’re not so different! #bees #bumblebees #nature #wildlife 🌍🐝

3pm. Right on the money! And not a DOGE-manipulating self-serving pseudo-fascist state-sponsored Europe-dismantling billionaire asswipe in sight! #bees not #billionaires! Have a good one folks!

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 49 Development from egg to adult bumblebee can take anywhere from 20 to 35 days depending on species and conditions. Half this time is spent as a larva feeding and half as a pupa in a cocoon. #bees #bumblebees #nature

‘No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were;…’ 1/2 #europe #Ukraine️ #human #nature

Mornin’. Some shivering snowdrops. A little bit of #pure on a #planet that so badly needs it. #nature #snowdrops #sanctuary #organic #vegan 🌍🐝

Bee. Goodnight good people. What if we all dreamed the same dream and when we woke up in the morning the dream was reality and he’d never existed? #bee #goodnight #dream 🌍🐝

Almost on time - in Mexico City! Hola, ¿qué onda? #bees #abejorros 🌍🐝

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 48 The first brood of female worker #bumblebees produced in spring are often quite small in size as they rely solely on the queen for food whilst developing. Subsequent broods are nursed by a support network of workers. #bees

Here’s a #MondayMorningMinute with #nature here on The Bee Sanctuary of Ireland. Take a moment. #pause Go do some #good. Have the best week you can. If you’re not having a good week - tell someone. And if someone tells you - Listen. Really #listen. #mentalhealth #wellbeing #sanctuary #wild 🌍

Bee. Everybody quiet down now and get some sleep. ‘You gotta have a dream; If you don’t have a dream, How you gonna have a dream come true?’ #bee #goodnight #dream

Now that’s solid late. No messing around with nearly made its or so closes. No excuses. No apologies. No valid reason. Just badass seven hours late late. However…you know I bring truth and fact when I do show. Science based and verifiable. So you indulge me…’cause no matter the time truth matters!

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 47 Unlike male #bumblebees female bumblebees develop from fertilised eggs. Early in the life of the nest the females produced are workers. It is only later in the summer that new queens are produced. #bees #nature #pollinators #wildlife 🐝🌍

Got some flack on some platforms for this post with some telling me I should ‘stick to bees’. I’ve convened with the #bees and they’ve asked me to double down on this spoon-feeder. This guy is a bad actor. He’s a threat to the #planet, #nature and #bees. He’s a patsy and a fucking dull one at that.

Late today…yeah! I was busy pondering if male bumblebees are considered male in the US now under the new regime. Or do they actually exist at all? Are they merely a figment of the collective imagination there now? Possibly even far left activists? Jeez…I just don’t know any more. #bees #science 🌍🐝

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 46 Male #bumblebees develop from unfertilised eggs. They have no father. So 100% of their genes will be in common with their mother, the queen. They also have no stinger! #bees #nature #pollinators #wild 🌍🐝

Oh yeah..almost forgot.. Fuck right off back to the porch you crawled out from under you degenerate wannabe stand for nothing cob-chewing hick.. #FreeSpeech

You’re not #alone. In your dismay. Your apprehension. Your anger. Your frustration. Your raw fear. About what is happening on this #planet right now. They just want you to feel you are. So say good morning to somebody this morning. And you’re never alone in the company of #trees. Good morning!🌍

Bee. Goodnight my darlings. ‘When you walk in a dream But you know you're not dreaming, signore Scusami, but you see, back in old Napoli That's amore…’ #bee #goodnight #dream

It’s #Friday folks! Have the best #weekend you can. You know the drill: Be #kind Be #gentle Be #true Be like #bees This #ValentinesDay  Fall in love with #nature. Maybe even fall back in love with this old #planet. Rekindle your passion for #honesty, #truth and #decency. ❤️

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 45 Bumblebee Love. For most species of #bumblebee the queens will usually only mate with one male. Most males never actually get to mate successfully but if given the chance will indeed mate with more than one queen! #bees #love 🌍🐝

We used to be so much gentler in our ways with the #planet. We forsook that and not so long ago. Lost our way in the fog of progress, technology and globalisation. Drunk on notions of dominance. Can we find our way back? Sober up? Of course. But will we? Be gentle? Earth humble? Once again? 🌍

‘One of these things is not like the others, One of these things just doesn't belong, Can you tell which thing is not like the others By the time I finish my song?’ Come on kids it’s easy… #sesamestreet #resist #reparation

Early? Yep. But keep it to yourself for a bit. Don’t tell anyone. I have a long established and hard fought for reputation for unpunctuality to preserve and maintain. Thanks.🤫 #bees #science

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 44 #Bumblebees have built in antennae cleaners! Two comb edged notches on their front legs. Insert the antenna. Bend the leg to close. Pull antenna through. Catch dirt and pollen. Engineered by #nature. No apps/AI required. #bees 🌍🐝

Bee. ‘And goodnight to the street sweepers the night watchman flame keepers and goodnight Matilda, too…’ Dream for those who no longer dare to. #bee #goodnight #dream

Early spring sunshine warms the old shed wall. Been happening before me. Will happen after me. There’s a comfort to that. #spring #life
