Native Bee (Tetragonula carbonaria) at work on Salvia (I think). Pictures by son.

Australia has
eleven species of
small black
stingless bees
,
About 4 mm long,
Build resinous
nests inside
hollow trees.

Think the
stingless native
bees in garden are
tetragonula carbonaria,
Native range in
Queensland and NSW,
Excellent pollinators,
Nest produces
“tangy” honey in
small amounts.

Bees hither and yon. Picture by son.

Standing near
stunning blooms,
Enjoying flight
little bees
pollinating flowers,
Heart’s joy and
peaceful thoughts,
Son’s garden,
Grandkids
exploring.
