That's brilliant - it's great to see small groups doing so well, especially when the big charities soak up most of the charity cash

Hi Shizara, did you hear back from the BCT? I've checked their website a few times recently, but their donation thermomoter hasn't been updated.

Went on a stroll along the Stratford Canal today & sat down to eat my lunch near Wilmcote. Couldn't believe it when a bumblebee popped up out of nowhere & started buzzing around me! A bizzare sight for January.

Action! Camera! - Even on the mobile.

Seeing this has reminded me to email them to update the thermometer and to make this year's donation. A great and worthy cause for a wonderful helper and often unappreciated friend of mankind.

It looks like things are chugging along rather well along the financial front...

Thanks to the amazing support we've received from members, the general public and others (including the Heritage Lottery Fund, the Biodiversity Action Grants Scheme, SNH and Esmée Fairbairn), we continue to grow rapidly!

This has to be a good thing. I think many fail to realize how these tiny buzzy creatures work so very hard for us and think nothing of squishing them if they have lost their way and finished up buzzing against a window or something.

Bumblebees need our help and even sowing a few cottage-garden plants and/or wildflowers in your garden is one small way of saying thank you to the bumblers that do so much for us.
