This morning we submitted a letter to the USFWS asking for a formal Biological Opinion related and airport expansion at #SaveBellBowlPrairie and the rusty patched bumble bee. See savebellbowlprairie.org for other ways you can take action to protect this species and its habitat.

Open letter to the USFWS re: rusty patched bumble bee and #SaveBellBowlPrairie. @xercessociety is simply asking the FWS to issue an official Biological Opinion to evaluate incidental take related to nesting and overwintering habitat. This is why we have an #EndangeredSpecies Act.

Are you still seeing #bumblebees on your flowers? Their colonies are wrapping in most parts of the country, but these last dates of activity are of great interest to researchers. Submit your pics to @bumblebeewatch.org! (These pics are males overnighting, despite recent frosts)

@amberllab Hi @amberllab, like you, we're just busy in the field watching bumble bees. Hope to get to the mall soon. This is B. impatiens.

@WhatsupMimi Looks more like B. rufocinctus to us, but hard to be certain from that angle.
