Bumble Bee Atlas Field Training – Miles City

June 15 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Do you want to learn about the conservation of bumble bees and contribute to a community science project?
On June 15, join Michelle Toshack from the Montana Bumble Bee Atlas to learn and practice Atlas protocols. Anyone with an interest in bees and a desire to help them in a hands-on way is encouraged to attend — no prior experience needed!
This training will be hands-on practice catching, photographing, and releasing bumble bees. Xerces will provide all project equipment (nets, vials, ice) to use during the training. Please bring your own camera (cell phone cameras work!).
Come prepared for the day with lunch, snacks, water, walking shoes, sun protection, and note-taking materials.
You will receive an email with more information one week before the event.
