thank you to our new volunteers and continuing volunteers for this forest stewardship activity today

Mayfield bee check (3 native species). Enjoyed seeing other wildlife also. Temps a bit high, but that's summer in Texas!

4 new volunteers! We really did get more done with more volunteers.

Quick bee survey before a Violet Crown Garden Club planning meeting. Enjoyed seeing Zilker Garden staff out in the garden collecting seeds and caring for the garden.

invasive ligustrum/plant management as forest stewardship continues

always great to work with volunteers helping steward our trail and nature spaces.

hot hot hot. saw a new bee for me, I think, oblique longhorn bee on a rosinweed that I thought was a bumblebee till I saw image at home on computer screen. posted on iNat.
