Red Mason Bee

Osmia bicornis

The Red Mason Bee is a friendly little bee that loves to help flowers grow by spreading pollen. They are great builders and make cozy homes out of mud!

生息地: Urban areas

外見

The Red Mason Bee has a stocky, dark body with a thick covering of bright, rusty orange-red hairs on its abdomen, making it easily distinguishable. Its head and thorax are typically black, and females have distinctive horns on their face. Unlike honeybees, they carry pollen on stiff hairs under their belly.

おもしろい事実

Instead of honey, these bees collect a special 'bee bread' (pollen and nectar) to feed their growing babies.

One Red Mason Bee can pollinate as many flowers as 100 honeybees in a day!

These tiny 'solitary bees' don't live in big hives; each female builds her own nursery!

They're called 'mason' bees because they use mud, just like a mason uses bricks, to build their nests.

特殊能力

能力

Super Pollinator Pouch

Red Mason Bees have a unique scopa (pollen brush) under their belly that helps them carry pollen more efficiently, making them excellent plant pollinators.

能力

Mud Builder Master

Red Mason Bees can construct intricate nests by packing mud into existing tunnels, creating individual chambers for each egg.

能力

Gentle Nature

Red Mason Bees are very gentle and rarely sting because their main focus is on gathering pollen and nectar, not defending a colony.
