Brenda was a beautiful Queen Bumblebee who had spent all the winter hibernating in an old mouse hole. When she awoke she found everything had changed outside her home. There was a car park, the farmer had destroyed the hedges and trees and there was nowhere to gather her pollen and nectar. She then discovered, as a result, she had lost her stripes. When a friendly mouse offered to help her by moving her to a new site where people had planted bee friendly flowers in the fields and in their gardens, she was so happy and got her stripes back.
