Bumblebee quest in Clementwijk 2

During the Week of the Bee, we will go looking for bumblebees together. On this quest, you will get to know our fluffiest wild bees and learn a lot about their way of life and relationship with certain plants. That they are important pollinating insects you probably already knew, but had you heard of long-tongued and short-tongued bees? We will also teach you how to recognize the different species of bumblebees: the Red-tailed Bumblebee, Common Carder Bee, or Tree Bumblebee will no longer be a mystery to you... And who knows, we might even get to see a rare species! Did you know that there were once 31 different species of bumblebees in our country? There are even many other species of wild bees in Belgium. We are happy to tell you more about this too!
