Drama of Bees Up Close
For the last few days, Rollin Covill (UC Berkeley) and spouse have been at Hastings. Rollin is a co-author in an upcoming book, "Garden Bees of California" by long-term Hastings
researcher Gordon Frankie, his colleague Robbin Thorpe (UC Davis, Entomology) with Barbara Errter (plant specialists, UCB, Jepson Herbarium). Imagine looking at hundreds of carefully identified bees in these amazing portraits. We are pleased he could share them. Photo by Rollin is a Lasioglossum spp. bee losing itself the the yellow glory of a Hastings poppy.
