There are lots of bumblebees this year (fortunately) !
If you look closely in the garden at night, you will see them: the sleeping bumblebees and bees.
Bumblebees often sleep in flowers or sheltered places, such as nesting holes, insect hotels or under leaves. They may also sleep outside on plants and flowers, especially when it's flight season. Sleeping bumblebees can be recognized by their relaxed posture, where they sink through their legs and sometimes even fall over.
So don't disturb them!
They fall asleep on the plants on which they fly during the day: lavender, marjoram, the butterfly bush, the teasel, various thistles and somewhat less on carrot.
A sleeping bumblebee can be recognized by its antennae hanging forward. It usually hangs from the underside of a flower, and its wings are closed tightly backward.
Aren't they cute ?
