Join National Geographic Explorer and community scientist Krystle Hickman for a presentation about her studies of California’s native bees, which culminated in her new book, The ABCs of California’s Native Bees. California is home to one of the most biodiverse bee populations in the world with over 1,600 species of native bees throughout the state. A committed conservationist, Hickman spent more than a decade capturing exquisitely detailed photographs of our native bees and making exciting discoveries about their behavior in the field. A book-signing will follow.
