Sending them off!

This just in! All of the CAPS bees have been pinned, labeled, packed, and are ready to be shipped off to our bee expert for identification. We hope to start figuring some things out about your bees very soon!

Bee washing with Sam!

Our mentor, Sam Droege, has a new YouTube video out demonstrating how we wash the bee specimens. The video is a nice accompaniment to the still photos in our last post. Enjoy the video!

We're actually through the process of washing and pinning at this point and we're almost done labeling each and every one of your bees. We'll be sending them off to a bee expert for species identification soon.

Stay tuned for more info!
