Field day: Training in bumblebee identification and monitoring

Pensychnant Nature Reserve, Conwy 10:00 – 15:00

Join us at the beautiful Pensychnant Nature Reserve for a chance to practice identifying and monitoring bumblebees with the Bumblebee Conservation Trust.

The morning will focus on identification, and in the afternoon we will practice doing a ‘Beewalk’, which is the national recording scheme run by the Bumblebee Conservation Trust to monitor the abundance of bumblebees.

A pre-requisite is having watched the two online training videos on bumblebee identification and monitoring, which can be found through the links below:
