The nesting block will provide a place for wild bees to lay their eggs. The block will <br />be collected in September, the larvae will be raised to adults, and the species will be <br />identified and entered into a statewide database. <br /> <br />According to Program Coordinator Britt Forsberg, “We chose Crepeau for a bee <br />block because it has a large area of high-quality natural habitat and a nearby <br />volunteer who is interested in monitoring the block. We wanted to choose locations <br />where there would be strong existing bee populations as well as having plenty of <br />wild flowers for bees to forage. The native bees will use primarily native plants, <br />although some non-native plants like dandelions and clover are important resources <br />for bees.” <br /> <br />The study will cover three field sessions (2016-2018), but project staff has only <br />asked sites to commit to one season. “We’d certainly be open to installing a block at <br />Crepeau again next year!” Forsberg said. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
