Bees

Bees are vital pollinators to terrestrial habitats. Explore the world of honeybees, bumblebees and solitary bees with our bee-focused research webinars.

entoLIVE Webinars

The entoLIVE webinar series is a programme of virtual talks exploring the science of insects and other invertebrates.

All events are free to attend and are suitable for adults of all abilities – a passion for invertebrates is all that’s required!

Putting up a bee hotel is a popular - and accessible - wildlife gardening activity, but typical designs are very focused on the needs of a small sub-set of solitary bees. Buzz Club projects are looking to expand the ecological value of the Hymenopteran hotel to provide support for a much wider range of insects. They also aim to identify and avoid possible pitfalls and problems when using these in real garden environments!

Dr Linda Birkin is a specialist in citizen science and urban entomology. She has a particular interest in ecological outreach and wildlife gardening.Issy Sexton is a Research Assistant at the University of Sussex, specialising in pollinator-focused citizen science. She also has a background in community engagement and environmental policy.
