Small little sweat bee relaxing on a dandelion inflorescence. Not sure what it is so will likely just wait for John Ascher (National University of Singapore) to find my observation on iNaturalist. I'm so grateful for IDers like him. #bees #inaturalist #hymenoptera #insects #dandelion #sweatbee #halictidae https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/270401483
Happy #Dandelion appreciation day!
Did you know that the name comes from the French 'dent du lion', which means tooth of the lion. This refers to the jagged and pointy leaf and not the flower.
I've shown you mine, now go out and find one and show me yours.
While I'm being a dandelion evangelist - a dandevangelist, if you will - it seems appropriate to share my very detailed post about correctly identifying dandelion. We all THINK we know them, but there are some lookalikes who aren't as beneficial to ingest. So here you go: https://pnwmichelle.com/2019/07/08/do-you-know-dandelion/ #dandelion #plantid

This plant stressing bee behaviour may be a ‘tough love’ adaptation as #climate breakdown brings bees out of hibernation earlier.
If no food is available #bees die, pollination suffers and plants disappear too.
