HBBBT! Megachile f (Centaurea ornata)

Hymenoptera. Apoidea. Megachilidae.

 

Our native bees are in trouble, one thing we can do is plant lots of pollinator-friendly native plants in our gardens and leave wildflowers unsprayed along our field-sides and roadsides. Plants such as mountain mints, goldenrods and asters are good for bees (and butterflies), and we get to enjoy the sight and smell of the wildflowers too!
