Ricky here with some top stuff on the way this morning.

Don't miss the unbelievable story of the boy born without ears.

And Olympic champion Mo Farah on being airlifted to hospital.

But first to a major nature project you can get involved in.

It's all about bees and how scientists believe they are

But now they're worried that changes in the environment are reducing

the bumblebee population so to find out more, they're enlisting the help

of children from across the UK to take part in a massive bee survey.

This might look like a scene out of a film, and in a way, it is, because

we are on a mission to find as many bumblebees as we can. According to

researchers, bumblebee populations have crashed in the last 80 years in

the UK, and two species have become extinct. Scientists are worried that

changes to the environment are making numbers fall and they want

people to start noting every time they spot one. So far, over 2000

schools have signed up to the big bumblebee discovery. How many

bumblebees have you found? 11 will stop I've found about eight. Is that

good? Yeah. Let's keep looking. We are taking lots of pictures of them

and putting the picture onto the blog and then we write a message and

send it. This doctor has been looking into the decline of the

bumblebee population. There are varieties of reasons why these

insects are declining. Habitat is important, floors -- flowers are

really important to bumblebees so they can get the energy that they

need, and we know there has been a decline in flowers across the

landscape. How can you tell the species apart? This is the banded

orange tail be. And species apart? This is the banded

might have spotted the black bodied orange tail, earlier in the year. We

spotted 40 bumblebees over the last hour. All of this information will

be entered into the wider scientific study, but I've think we have

bothered to these bumblebees quite enough now. It is time for us to

buzz off. Next to the amazing story

of the nine-year-old who was born Around 100 kids each year are born

without one or both of their ears. But now doctors in London have come

up with a new way to help them. It involves making new ears out

of other parts of the body, and school boy Kieran is one

of those who's had the operation. Here's the moment when he saw his

brand new ears for the first time. Look what I have got. You can have a

really good look at your years now. Are you sure? Yes. Wow ex-macro now

he can just be a normal kid -- wow excavation Mark Navidi can just be a

normal kid. Sport and some of Team GB's biggest

stars are gearing up for the European Athletics Championships

which start this morning. Mo Farah will be going for double

gold but has been explaining the full reasons why he missed

the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. The Olympic champion's revealed he

was forced to pull out after collapsing

during a pre-Games training run. So much pain in my stomach and eye

had to be airlifted to the ambulance -- hospital diet and air ambulance

-- hospital by the air ambulance. It was scary. I would love to come back

and continue the road to the Commonwealth Games. I'd did not want

to disappoint my fans in all of the people who bought tickets, but I was

not ready. And finally to

a sporting event with a difference, Over 30 teams battled through the

night in the 12-hour endurance race It's a bit different

from what you might have seen The winning team managed to

complete 366 laps of the circuit. Newsround's back right here in

about half an hour.
