https://eeasc.org/event-6636198The Southeast Bumble Bee Atlas is a community science project focused on tracking the bumble bees of Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. The Southeast is home to a wide range of bumble bee species, making it a great place to learn about and study them. Sadly, about a quarter of bumble bee species in North America have seen their numbers drop in recent decades. That’s why we’re working to better understand where these bees are living, what habitats they prefer, and what kinds of flowers they use for food. The information we collect will help support future conservation efforts.
By attending our training workshop you can participate as community scientist with the Southeast Bumble Bee Atlas. You’ll learn how to catch, photograph, and release bumble bees safely, record habitat information, and submit your findings through our online platform, Bumble Bee Watch. All of this contributes to a clearer picture of where bees are doing well—and where conservation efforts are most needed!
