Join the Bumble Bee Atlas for a field day at Pony Creek Nature Center in Pacific Junction, Iowa (near Omaha) on Sunday, July 19 from 10 a.m. to noon. In-person training events are a great way to learn how to use your insect net, collect data according to project methods, practice identifying and photographing bees, and meet fellow participants.

Registration is required to attend. REGISTER HERE

This event will take place outdoors. During the first hour of this event, we will be walking along trails and through tallgrass prairie collecting bumble bees. During the second hour, we will gather around tables to practice bee ID. Boots or close-toed shoes, long pants, sunscreen, and tick prevention are recommended.
