July 21: Bee Hunt Hike, 3:30-4:30 PM
Now that summer is in full swing, you may have noticed there are a lot more bees outside! Did you know that for most species, only queen bumblebees hibernate and survive over the winter? In the spring, they emerge and lay eggs to hatch new worker bees, or female “non-queen” bees, while drones, or male bees, will not be born until closer to fall. Join our Naturalist to search for bumblebees, and other types of bees, and learn about their important role in pollination and supporting our prairies. Meet at the north entrance, near Discovery World, all ages and abilities welcome!
Please note: Dates and times are subject to change, and occasionally events may be cancelled. Please check the event website to confirm the latest details: (It’s Hiking Time MKE!)
