Photos of bee sub-species

[Mellifera Crofter]

I'm looking for photos of any of the more usual bee types we get here in the UK (including, of course, AMM) that can be published on a new website. Can anybody help out, please, or point me to a source for such photos? I don't want to just nick them from other people's web pages.

Thanks

Are you talking about bumble bees, Solitary bees or Just honey bees

Just honey bees, Greengage. I will of course credit the photos. In the meantime I'll use some photos from sites like Wikipedia, or the Dutch equivalent, with links to the sites.

I could send you some Amm pics Kitta but perhaps you have all you need of those? If you'd like some, send me a private message with your email address?

Thanks Kate - I'll send a message. Kitta

No!

I would quite like to hang on to the other two if I may. It's a nice photo of bees taking off; arriving; or just being busy.(?) The mason-bee nest is interesting. Did you uncap it, or was the queen still busy preparing her nest?

I have by now ransacked the internet for photos of honey-bee subspecies - all accredited - but if anybody has clear photos of honey bees, and they can be named as belonging to a certain subspecie, I'd still be interested.

That's lovely. Thank you, John. I'm going to try and use the photos.
