Each evening, around 8 p.m., the bee activity on our lavendar plants slows considerably, and a number of native bees actually appear to be sleeping -- or at least dozing -- while clinging to a stem.
Tonight I finally looked this up, and it seems that bees don't sleep, per se, but remain motionless at night, thereby reserving energy for the next day.
