Bumblebees
Bumblebees: Behaviour, Ecology, and Conservation | Dave Goulson
1 post
Bumblebees are familiar and charismatic insects, occurring throughout much of the world. They are increasingly being used as a model organism for studying a wide range of ecological and behavioural concepts, such as social organization, optimal foraging theories, host-parasite interactions, and pollination. Since the publication of the first edition of the book, there have been hundreds of research papers published on bumblebees. There is clearly a continuing need for an affordable, well-illustrated, and appealing text that makes accessible all of the major advances in understanding of the behaviour and ecology of bumblebees that have been made in the last 30 years.

My 2 bumblebees at their music class. Trying to focus on the positives as this week is determined to drag me under. I was assaulted while walking into town today. A man thought it acceptable to hit me on the shoulder as he walked passed. It's all been passed on to the police as I had a witness. Just waiting for a call back.
Just want this week done.

readingjedi What?!? That's outrageous! Hope the weekend brings you better things. 6y
Cathythoughts Oh I‘m sorry that happened... sending hugs & take care. 6y
laurieluna @readingjedi Yeah. When we confronted him he blamed mental health issues. Not an excuse to hit people. It triggered me so bad I sat and cried at my 1 year olds toddler group. @Cathythoughts thank you. I'm just about done with October now! 6y

laurieluna @ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled @CouronneDhiver thank you. It was such a massive shock. My shoulder is starting to really hurt. He was a big man too. I keep thinking what if I'd been a kid or an old person? He would have knocked me down. 6y

laurieluna @Balibee146 That's horrible! I just don't understand why people think it is acceptable to do that to others. We're ok. Just trying to make the most of the rest of the day now. Xx 6y
laurieluna @TrishB There's been some amazing moments this year but there's also been some terrible ones. It seems the terrible ones are gaining momentum at the moment though. Hope you're feeling better. Sending hugs. X 6y

DivineDiana I am sorry that you had that experience. It sounds as though your reporting of the incident is helping this person who has mental health problems. ❤️ (edited) 6y
laurieluna @DivineDiana Yeah, thats what I wanted. I initially left my name and number at the primary care centre where he was heading so that his mental health worker could contact me but he didn't, thats why I reported it an the police stepped in to get him the help he needs. 6y
DivineDiana 👏🏻👍🏻❤️ 6y
Moray_Reads Hope you're doing better now ❤️ 6y
