おもしろい事実

Their name 'miserabilis' might come from how early and cold they appear in spring!

These bees are specialized, only gathering food from a few specific kinds of flowers!

They are excellent architects, building individual, hidden tunnels for each baby bee.

Without these bees, some of California's most beautiful early wildflowers wouldn't thrive!
