Are other people finding dead Bumble Bees?

We have in the past had quite a few Honey Bees which seem OK, but the
Bumblies are staggering around on the ground, lifting to a greater height
seems to no avail and the next we see is them on their backs, legs up,
dead

Any comments anyone?

I found two this morning, I put it down to the cold and wet night but I
don't know :-(

Ours have been found during/after dry warmish spells :-((

We are South facing South East Isle of Wight. Are you anywhere near?
