MHS members’ event
with Jessica Holdway

Following on from a short AGM there will be a talk.

Many of you will know Jessica and may know that she works for the Bumblebee Conservation Trust. She led a few of us on a fascinating walk around Marden Meadow last summer to show us how to identify bumblebees and some of the plants on which they forage. She has a wealth of knowledge on these charismatic and important insects.

In this talk Jessica will cover a brief description of the three bee species, why the bumblebees are in decline, how we can help them, and about our project.
