MOOLOOLAH River Landcare’s Bug Club is teaming up with Native Bee Specialist and Entomologist, Dr Kit Prendergast to conduct a 7 month study of native bees on the Sunshine Coast! The study starts this September and we are looking for keen community members to help us collect data because UFOs are all around us. The Unidentified Flying Objects this community study focuses on are native bees. Once a month participants will spend a couple hours in the field collecting data on the local native bees. You do not need to have expert knowledge on native bees to join this activity as a citizen scientist and be part of this landmark study. If interested, contact MRL’s project officer: Jessica Raintree: projects@mrwl.com.au or register directly: eventbrite.com.au/e/708818042847?aff=oddtdtcreator
Bug Club is part of MRL’s ‘Even More… Bugs the Rescue and Rescuing Bugs’ Program.
It is supported by the Queensland Government-Engaging Science Grants.
