SUMMARY:Pollinators in the woods? The place of wild bees in a changing forested landscape
DESCRIPTION:Come join Kass Urban-Mead\, Xerces Pollinator Conservation Specialist\, NRCS Partner Biologist\, for an adventure exploring how wild bees use the woods–from the leafy forest floor to the tippy top of the canopy. Although we usually think of bees busy in our gardens\, flower patches\, and meadows (which is true!)\, that is not the only place they are found. In fact\, in the northeastern US up to 1/3 of our wild bee species may rely on forest habitats for at least a part of their life cycle. Some are specialized to only collect pollen from spring ephemerals on the forest floor\, while others nest in stumps\, logs\, and leaf litter deep in the woods\, and orchard pollinators use forest canopy pollen before the orchards bloom. We will discuss the changing nature of forests on our landscape and how this is likely to affect different groups of bees. Finally\, we will highlight ways in which forest management for healthy\, diverse\, climate-resilient woods is crucial not just for birds and other wildlife\, but also for the bees. \nThis webinar will be recorded and available on our YouTube channel. Closed Captioning will be available during this webinar. \n \nKass Urban-Mead\nPollinator Conservation Specialist\, NRCS Partner Biologist – The Xerces Society \nKass Urban-Mead provides technical assistance on pollinator conservation in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast region. As part of this work\, she assists with planning\, designing\, installing\, and managing habitat for pollinators and other beneficial insects. Kass also works with staff and research partners to develop technical guidelines and provide training on pollinator conservation practices.
