6. BEES AND TIGERS
01/22/2021
Mason Bees (Genus: Osmia)
Unlike honey bees (Apis) or bumblebees, Osmia species are solitary; every female is fertile and makes her own nest, and no worker bees for these species exist.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mason_bee
The Orchard Mason Bee ( Osmia Lignaria ) is a gentle, beneficial insect that has great potential as a pollinatator of fruit trees and a large variety of food crops. It is found throughout most of North America, particularly in wooded areas but often around homes in towns and cities.

Woodland Park Zoo’s new tiger was one of the world’s first animals to test positive for coronavirus. Azul, age 5, was living at New York's Bronx Zoo at the time and made a full recovery. She arrived in Seattle in September and entered the public enclosure this week.
