| Bombus hypnorum |
As for the Blue Tits, the parent was visiting the nest this morning but I didn't see any visits this afternoon. Have the young flown?

New bumble bee for the patch!
Having spent the morning with some fellow naturalists in Arnos Vale where we saw several individuals of Bombus hypnorum, I saw one in Monty after minutes of getting off the train - it was in Station Road near the Period Fireplaces workshop. This bumble bee was first seen in Britain in 2000 but has spread north and west since then, often choosing urban habitats.
