The Great Georgia Pollinator Census is a citizen science initiative and
you can help! Georgians across the state can
count and record pollinators. Goals for this program include: creating
pollinator habitat; learning how to identify pollinators; and helping
researchers collect data on pollinator populations. Citizens will be
asked to count pollinators on a favorite pollinator plant for 15
minutes, and then upload results to a website. We are looking for bumble
bees, carpenter bees, small bees, honey bees, wasps, flies,
butterflies, and other insects. This project is perfect for schools
doing STEM work, Home Owner Associations, Community Gardens, and more!
