Native Bee Study Group

The Native Bee Study group is  happening on May 22nd,  at 7:00 PM.  This group is an opportunity for connecting and learning  about native bees with others throughout the province. We will have a  theme each month, and will use this as a jumping off point to share our  own knowledge and learn from others.  Experts and complete beginners  welcome!  It will be a show and tell format, and anyone who is interested in  participating can create a slide on the shared google slides deck to  share with the group (link sent with registration). Photos can also be sent to  bcnativebees@gmail.com with a subject line of "Native Bee Study Group"

May theme "May Theme: “Botany for bees”. Let's take a deep dive into the relationships between plants and BC native bees.Join Lori Weidenhammer and friends as they dive into our iNaturalist data to discern the best pollen and nectar plants for BC's diverse native bees. Anyone who is interested in  participating can create a slide on the shared google slides deck to  share with the group (link sent with registration). Feel free to share your slides  that show evidence of a bee collecting nectar/and or pollen or using the plant material in an interesting way, ie for nesting.
