gvallee Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Native Dawson's Burrowing Bees (Amegilla dawsoni) are a large bee species that nest in the arid claypans of Western Australia. The bees' life cycle starts in July and involves the alpha males emerging from burrows first. Then a couple of months later, the females emerge to the mother of all battles as the huge, aggressive alpha males fight to the death to be the one to mate. Most of the males and even a few females die in the process. The fertilised females then excavate a 35cm tunnel into the claypan in aggregations of scores to hundreds of burrows and construct brood chambers. The chamber walls are waxed, the young laid, and a store of nectar and pollen added for nourishment when the young emerge 11 months later. Their job done, the female bees then die by September. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were extremely lucky to witness the Dawson's Burrowing Bees. They only live in specific parts of northern Western Australia near claypans. We were there by chance at the right place at the right time. We spent a couple of hours watching them over two days. David Attenborough captured spectacular footage of the Dawson's Burrowing Bees for the BBC series LIFE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtpECWl-5v4 To see the Purple-crowned Fairywrens, we especially went to stay in an awesome remote reserve owned by the Australia Wildlife Conservancy. Feeling blessed in Australia. Edited September 14, 2021 by gvallee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much to see and enjoy in Australia, it's a privilege to be full time on the road, or preferably off-road, and fill our senses with these beauties. There are exceptions of course, we're just back from the beach where a storm brought tons of seaweed, it's a real stink! Still there were oystercatchers and gulls to observe. And it's nearly Happy Hour now!! Life is good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm missing a trick there. I've tried drag and drop, copy and paste but nothing sticks in the dialogue box. Edited September 21, 2021 by Dave Richards added text.
