SUMMARY:Montane Bee-o-Blitz: Intro to Native Bees Walk in the Tahoe Basin
DESCRIPTION:Get ready for the California Montane Bee-O-Blitz with this hands-on introduction to native bees. Join experts Rachel Vannette (UC Davis) and Will Richardson (Tahoe Institute for Natural Science) to explore the fascinating world of native pollinators. \nLearn how to identify bees to the family level\, observe their behavior in the field\, practice techniques for photographing bees\, and observe researchers at work. This interactive walk is perfect for beginners and nature enthusiasts looking to build skills and contribute to the Montane Bee-O-Blitz (June 22–28). \nHosted in collaboration with the California Native Bee Society and the Tahoe Environmental Research Center. Learn more about the Montane Bee-O-Blitz iNaturalist project: https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/california-montane-bee-o-blitz \nMake sure to register here to learn about specifics of where to meet! Reach out to Kate (socialmedia@calnbs.org) with questions!

SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting: Dr. Hollis Woodard
DESCRIPTION:Adventures in US Bee Conservation \nHollis is an Associate Professor of Entomology at the University of California\, Riverside and PI of the US National Native Bee Monitoring Research Coordination Network. She received a PhD in Biology in 2012 from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign\, where she worked with Dr. Gene Robinson on the molecular basis of social evolution in bees. From 2013-2015 she was a USDA-NIFA Postdoctoral Fellow working on the nutritional ecology of bumble bees with Dr. Shalene Jha at the University of Texas at Austin. In summer 2015\, she joined the faculty at the University of California\, Riverside. She is broadly interested in native bee ecology\, evolution\, social behavior\, and conservation\, and is leading national efforts to conserve US wild bees. \nBee conservation in the US is currently hindered by challenges associated with assessing the status and trends of a diverse group of >3000 species\, many of which are rare\, endemic to small areas\, and/or exhibit high inter-annual variationin population size. Fundamental information about the distribution of most species across space and time\, thus\, is lacking yet urgently needed to assess population status\, guide conservation plans\, and prioritize actions among species and geographies.
