In one of my previous posts in this community, I published the first guavas that I harvested. The tree is already in full production, although I must say that this is temporary, because when the rains stop it will restrict its flowering and fruiting. These last two days I have been able to collect a good amount of fruit, I think about three kilograms, and I am really happy, because I can eat it chopped or juiced. I must say that I have not only collected this amount. Since this tree began to bear fruit, I must have harvested approximately 25 kilograms, this corresponds to a period of one month (more or less); And as always I leave part of the fruit for the birds to eat. Here I share part of the collection.
Being yesterday with my husband in the lot, we saw something that we did not know, and it was a GREEN BEE. Yes! A green bee, very similar to the Apis, but a little bigger, louder, much faster in its flight and weirder… it was digging in the ground. Previously I had seen her sucking some lemon balm flowers, her (which is a female) and another similar insect, but much larger, which after investigating it turned out to be a male. My husband was alarmed, because he thought they were Africanized bees, which are very aggressive and dangerous, but we quickly googled and they turned out to be specimens of green bees, which are native to America. According to what we could read, they correspond to the genus Augochloropsis, and there are also blue ones. They are generally found in tropical and subtropical regions, although in the United States, specifically Florida, there are three species of blue bees. We also learned that they live in caves made in soft earth, and generally have a variable behavior, and can be solitary or eusocial, that is, they are grouped to care for the generations that are being born. We only saw a couple, I suppose there are more specimens nearby; but it really surprised me, because I never saw a bee with those characteristics. I was able to photograph the female with great difficulty, so sorry for the quality of the photos, but they fly very fast and do not perch in one place for long. It was impossible for me to photograph the male, which is really impressive.
