Bumblebee….(Title Photo)
Dear Readers, we all did very well this week! Claire got 10/11, Fran and Bobby got 10 1/2 out of 11 ( Number 8 was an ashy mining bee), and the joint winners this week are Mike from Alittlebitoutoffocus and Mal from FEARN with 11 out of 11. Well done everybody!

I love those type of ‘clue’ quizzes and I’m glad I remembered to enter this week. 😊 Well done to Mal, Claire and Fran & Bobby.
Thank you Mike, Well done to you too. Yes another fun quiz, very enjoyable.
As a paid up member of the Bumblebee Conservation Trust I can breath a sigh of relief!
