Thank you for your support, and for considering contributing to BeeWatch.
Please send us digital photographs of any unusual bumblebees that you see.
Before submitting your records, please carefully read the following instructions

Each email to BeeWatch must contain the following information:

Digital photo/s - please send only one of each bee

If you are an expert recorder you may feel confident submitting records without accompanying photos. You can do this by downloading a recording form, which you can then send in monthly or quarterly. Please fill this in electronically and email it to us.

Paper forms will be filed for future processing, but at present we do not have the capacity to input these data.

Have you found a nest?

If so I'd love to hear from you! My name's Steph, and I'm doing some research into where bumblebee nests are found. Could you spare a couple of minutes to fill in a simple online survey?

Need a net?

BBCT recommend the excellent nets produced by Watkins and Doncaster. They're what we all use ourselves for fieldwork - well balanced, and with a fine mesh to ensure that the bees aren't harmed.

The Beewatchers Kit shown here includes everything you need for survey work.
