Book of The Week Radio 4

[Mellifera Crofter]

You'll need it for module 8!

I'm going to sit Module 8 in March (I hope!) and have eventually started to read the book and really enjoy it so far. To go with the book (A Sting in the Tale) - can anybody recommend a good guide book on bumble-bee identification?

I have this one. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Field-Guide.../dp/0954971310
After reading a sting in the Tale read a buzz in the meadow by Dave Goulson and then the humble bee by Frederick Sladen https://archive.org/details/humblebeeitslife00slad

Thanks for the suggestions, GG. I'll check them out.
