2010 Native Bee Calendar
Order your calendar by November 30th!
As busy as a bee? Do you need a way to keep track of your
schedule? The Xerces Society and the Great Sunflower Project are happy to offer
the 2010 Native Bee Calendar, which was created by Celeste Ets-Hokin. With
magnificent close-up photos by Rollin Coville, this calendar takes you on a tour
of twelve commonly encountered types of native bees. Each month features a
full-page pin-up of a different bee genus, accompanied by a brief summary of its
preferred plants, nesting needs, and notes on how to identify it�and of course,
a complete day-by-day calendar for each month. Preview a sample of the front
cover, one month, and back cover at http://www.xerces.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sample-calendar.pdf.
All orders must be received online by Monday, November
30, 2009. Calendars will be shipped to arrive by the holidays.
Price: $14.00 (including shipping).
The calendar can be purchased online through either
organization:
Great Sunflower Project http://www.greatsunflower.org/en/2010-bee-calendar
Xerces
Society http://www.xerces.org/calendar/
Sales of this calendar will directly benefit the
conservation work of both organizations.
The Great Sunflower Project
is accelerating the pace of pollinator conservation by empowering people from
pre-schoolers to scientists to make the world a better place for bees. The idea
is simple; gardeners plant a sunflower and then time how long it takes
for five bees to visit. Gardens that quickly see bees are healthy. Gardens
that don't see bees aren't. The sunflowers are both a thermometer measuring
the health of the bee community across the continent and a wonderful
resource making each garden where they are planted a better place for bees. Join
us at www.GreatSunflower.org!
