🌿Brilliant Native Bees of BC – Julia Taylor
BC is home to around 600 different native bee species and has the greatest diversity of native bees in all of Canada. This include 30 species of bumble bees, as well as mason bees, miner bees, leafcutter bees, carpenter bees, and the beautiful sweat bees whose metallic beauty seems at odds with their humble name. These bees don’t make honey, but are essential for pollination of most of our native wildflowers, and like honeybees, they pollinate crops that provide us with food.
Julia Taylor is a Board Member of the Native Bee Society of British Columbia.
