Overjoyed to speak with @SenMarkey today about the urgency of supporting 🐝🦋 locally and nationally. It’s going to take a hive—we need a combo of community education and pioneering pro-pollinator legislation. Filled with gratitude for this moment and optimism for our future!

@Bee_Bytes @SKK_Anthophila Colletes inaequalis!

My friend @bee_searcher tells the stories of the bees we really need to save 🐝 #COP15 #biodiversity #cellophane4ever youtu.be/l6K8x_8YXlM

@ValBourdeau_MM Awww thanks Val 🙏🐝🌻

Interested in #insect pollinators? Do you want to #savethebees? @bee_searcher's @TEDxTufts is a MUST WATCH. Watch to learn why honey bee decline is not a conservation problem and get to know our native bees, which need our help. 🐝 youtu.be/l6K8x_8YXlM

Long-horned bees (Melissodes) on late season asters (Symphyotrichum) #melissodeslove I always love the blue-eyed bees

@RachaelEBee @Canvas_by_Inst @ProvidenceCol @PCFriarsmbb what an awesome assignment!

Weekend grading is so much better when: the assignment is an autobiography on the student’s connection with nature, I get to use @Canvas_by_Inst’s SpeedGrader (thanks for switching, @ProvidenceCol!), and the day started with buttermilk blueberry Belgian waffles. 🫐🧇

@Myrmecos Fall aster bees, never get tired of Melissodes druriellus!

@rghatfield For many plants, honey bees are not the best pollinators.

What are some misconceptions about honey #bees that you wish most people knew? I'll start: 1. Beekeeping is animal husbandry, NOT #conservation 2. The vast majority of bee species DON'T live in hives and DON'T make honey 3. Honey bees are NOT endangered What else?
