Bee Basics at the Seneca Park Zoo
I had a fantastic afternoon at the Seneca Park Zoo in Rochester, NY, doing a workshop on Bee Basics for the naturalist team and the Urban Ecology students. In just 20 minutes, in two patches of flowers, we found Brown-belted bumble bees, Common Eastern bumble bees, Lasioglossum, small metallic-blue carpenter bees, and one elusive leaf-cutter bee. There's amazing life to see at this zoo!
