Come join us for this very exciting and interesting presentation by David Jennings.  He will be presenting information on the bumble bees of our state.  He is knowledgeable on bumble bee biology, ecology and identification. For the past several summers he has traveled Washington photographing bumble bees as a citizen scientist collecting data for Xerces’ Bumble Bee Watch program. David used this past summer’s restriction on field work to share what he learned by constructing a website focused on our bumble bees.  A major focus of the website is “how to ID that bumble bee”.  It also contains information on gardening, conservation and other resources.

David has an academic background in wildlife ecology and conservation and is a former Fish and Wildlife Commissioner. He serves as vice president of the Washington Butterfly Association and on the Black Hills Audubon Society’s conservation committee.

Learn them, respect them, protect them!
