2011 Bee survey officially over!

November has been an interesting month thus far.  We've had some really chilly weather and even a few days in the 80's.  I managed to squeeze one more survey in during the second week and was still surprised by the number of bees out there.  Washington Oaks Gardens S.P.  has very few bees, very little is flowering anymore, at least very little that bees like.  Matanzas state forest still got a nice amount of bees in the pan traps, but I didn't collect any with nets.  The beach and peninsula on the northern end were still fairly productive, but the native plant garden proved to be one of the better areas to survey.  It still has Gaillardia pulchella, Helianthus debilis, and Solidago sempervirens flowering nicely.

I'm off to identify my specimens and will keep you posted on my results!
