Live in the Southeast? Here’s your chance to join a regional science project right from your own backyard.
The Great Southeast Pollinator Census is happening August 23–24! All you need to do is pick a blooming plant, watch it for 15 minutes, and count the bees, butterflies, wasps, flies, and other insects that visit. Your observations become part of a larger project tracking pollinator health across the region.
Think of it as a field trip without leaving home!etter yet, grab a neighbor, your family, or a group of friends and make it an outdoor adventure together.
This is a fun way to slow down, enjoy your blooms, and give back to nature at the same time.
