Rare bumblebee seen for first time in 50 years
"We are both like, 'is that a ruderal bumblebee'," he said. "I've done a lot of rare species mapping in Wales and so I knew [ruderals] were definitely not here."

"It says a lot about the farmers here, farming low intensity, low stocking density which allows wildflowers to grow," he added.The rare bumblebee was spotted on a foxglove just metres from a bee conservationist's homethe ruderal is difficult to identify, which could be why it is "largely unrecorded in Wales".
The Bumblebee Conservation Trust said it hoped to develop a project across Carmarthenshire and potentially other parts of Wales to help protect the rare bumblebee.
