In collaboration with the Encyclopedia of Life (eol.org), we've
developed a set of "Bee Observer Cards" that are intended to teach
naturalists, teachers, resource managers and other interested public
something about the diverse anatomies, natural history, and behaviors
of bees. The cards are not a guide to taxonomic identification, but
more a tool to help people observe the remarkable diversity of body
structures, nesting habits etc. when they are out in the field. They
are freely available to anyone as a pdf on the EOL website:
<http://eol.org/info/disc_observer>http://eol.org/info/disc_observer
From there, they are easy to print up as cards or for use on screen
devices. Please take a look, and spread the word! Thanks.
