Blue Banded Bees are native to Australia and have bands of metallic blue fur! They are solitary - each female bee mates and then builds a nest by herself. Many build their nest burrows in the same spot, close to one another, like neighbouring houses in a village. Fear of a female planet indeed!
They perform a type of pollination where they shiver their flight muscles causing pollen to shoot out of hidden capsules in some flowers.
This little bee corner measures approximately 83/4”x 10”.
The copper foiled glass is set into zinc came and fastened with 3 loops which make it secure & easy to mount in a window or doorway corner. Bee🐝💙
