WEBINAR: Xerces – In the Life of the Bumble Bee Queen
March 28 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm CDT
In the Life of the Bumble Bee Queen
Thursday, March 28, 2024
12:00 PM – 1:00 PM CDT
Join Rich Hatfield, Xerces Senior Endangered Species Conservation Biologist, to take a deep dive into the reproductive females of bumble bees, including cuckoo bumble bees. We’ll primarily look at the solitary phase of the lifecycle, including what is known about where and how they hibernate, and what we know about what it takes to establish a nest and how they select a site. We’ll likely have as many questions as answers in this webinar, but please join us for an exploration into the lesser known aspects of bumble bee ecology.
This webinar will be recorded and available on our YouTube channel. Closed Captioning will be available during this webinar.
