Hi sithlord - As there are around 260 different species of bee in the UK I thought it might be better to show you this introduction rather than tell you the differences...then perhaps you can Google for any that interest you. Pretty little things!

This is my favourite - the Red-Tailed Bee (if it comes out!)
