Bumble Bee Atlas
@bumblebeeatlas.bsky.social
A Xerces Society led program that is collaboratively tracking and conserving bumble bees across North America.

Bumble Bee Atlas participants have made some amazing discoveries this year! This sighting of a Morrison's bumble represents just one of only a handful of records from Nebraska—what a cool find.
