Bob's Blog - the Great Yellow Journey

23rd July 2009

A change of scene for me, with a trip to visit a Borders contact.  A few worn Early Bumblebees still present, and many other males,including two cuckoo bumblebees – could they be Scotland’s first Southern Cuckoo Bumblebees?  A bite to eat at St Abbs where Himalayan Balsam was thick in places.  An attractive plant, which is a great lure for bumblebees – but an invasive non-native.  Payments available to land managers for its eradication!
