In this beginner course, you will be introduced to the skills and understanding required to reliably identify the species of bumblebee found across the UK. We also discuss collection equipment and techniques and the importance of generating biological records to better inform our understanding of the current state of the UK’s fauna.
Tutor: Dr Will Leo Hawkes
