PEBC - Honey Bees

Families/All ages welcome
Bees are truly a remarkable creature. They are the only insect that produces food eaten by man, will visit 50 to 100 flowers during a collection trip, will fly as fast as 15 mph and can flap their wings at an average of 200 times per second, or 12,000 times per minute. Along with some of these fun facts, we will be learning about how these bees produce honey, some of their unique habits, and why they are such a critical part of our ecosystem. Join guest presenter and beekeeper, Anthony Almodovar, in observing an active hive and learning about one of the most fascinating and needed creature on earth-the honey bee.

Families are welcome!
It has been a long winter of inactivity for local reptiles. The official term for this state in reptiles is brumation, roughly the same as hibernation. Now that the spring sun is warming the ponds and ground, these reptiles are emerging to carry on their lives. Join the fun in discovering where these animals have spent the winter and what they will be up to for the rest of the warm weather months. You'll be able to meet the resident reptiles of the PEBC, too!
Pre-registration is required. Please call 507-662-5064 or email Marilyn@ecologybus.org.
