Hi Beeple,

World Bee Day is coming up and I'm hosting an online presentation all about the Australian Megachile - who they are, their diversity, what nesting and food resources they need, a bit on bee hotels, and a citizen science project I am running on the leaves and petals that some Megachile use. Please share with your networks, and come and learn all about one of my fave genera! Details below (I also am planning two other events, I will follow up with these over the next few days):

Date: Friday May 22nd

Time: 1600h AWST / 1800 AEST

Location: Online

Cost: $5

The event will be held online via Zoom
