We were excited to have Sara come as our guest speaker today to teach us about the life cycle of a bee. She discussed mason bees and that they are a solitary bee and are non-aggressive. A mason bee does not have a bee colony and they travel in swarms. The students discovered different ways to protect and attract bees. If you find a swarm, you are suppose to call to have it removed so that the bees can still be protected. The students were given a sample of honey to take home. Below is a link to find out more about mason bees:
