And the results are in!! We are so excited to share our 2020 WiBee App results from the 1000+ bee surveys submitted by 239 participants. Check out our 2 pg summaries for apple, cranberry, cucurbits and all habitats combined. #citizenscience mailchi.mp/a1112ff70105/the-…
Since April 1, our WiBee citizen scientists have already submitted over 500 bee surveys! We've just launched a public Data Dashboard for anyone interested in wild bees to explore the data. It's a work in progress, but we couldn't wait to share it: data-viz.it.wisc.edu/wibee/
Apple bloom in Wisconsin has begun, which means it's time to survey bees on apple using our new #CitizenScience WiBee App! Whether you have a single apple tree or an orchard, we'd love for you to download the app and help us collect wild bee data: pollinators.wisc.edu/wibee
Come meet a new generation of #biocontrol scientists, including our own @BenIuliano, at a virtual symposium this afternoon starting at 2pm ET/1pm CT! DM us for the Zoom link & password
