The Mountain States Bumble Bee Atlas seeks volunteers to look for bumble bees throughout Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, and Nevada.

The Mountain States Bumble Bee Atlas is recruiting community volunteers to help track and monitor at-risk bumble bees. This community science project, run by the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation and supported by the Bureau of Land Management, is working to gather crucial data on bumble bees’ locations and habitat needs across Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, and Nevada. This data collection will help land managers make informed conservation decisions in the future.

Bumble bee diversity is high in the Mountain West and close to 30 different species are possible across the four states of this project. Six of these species are of conservation concern, including the

western bumble bee (Bombus occidentalis), Suckley’s cuckoo bumble bee (B. suckleyi), American bumble bee (B. pensylvanicus), Morrison bumble bee (B. morrisoni), southern plains bumble bee (B.

fraternus), and variable cuckoo bumble bee (B. variabilis). The Bumble Bee Atlas is designed to learn where these different species can currently be found, which types of habitats they’re using, and

which flower species they’re relying on.

Community science programs, like the Bumble Bee Atlas, provide an opportunity for anyone to learn about these important animals and take action to help them. Interested volunteers can train online to

learn how to conduct a Bumble Bee Atlas survey and everyone, regardless of background, is encouraged to participate. No previous experience is required! After training, volunteers adopt a 50x50 kilometer grid cell and commit to completing two surveys during the field season, which runs from May through September, with exact survey dates varying by region. All data get uploaded to the

BumbleBeeWatch.org online tool.

More details can be found on the Bumble Bee Atlas website:

BumbleBeeAtlas.org.

You can learn more about bumble bees and how to help them at a free community presentation on Thursday, June 5, at 5:30pm at the Natrona Public Library, Casper. Anyone is welcome to attend this free event. To learn more about the Bumble Bee Atlas community science project, you are invited to participate in a field training taking place at Ayars Natural Bridge Park near Douglas on Friday, June 6 from 10 am-12:30 pm. This hands-on event will allow participants to practice the catch and release survey protocol, ask questions, and meet other volunteers. Space is limited and advance registration is required for the Ayars Natural Bridge event. Register at
