We were extremely fortunate this year to have an undergraduate interested in photographing and filming some of our research, Travis Bildahl. I think his images speak for themselves.

If you've ever been driving down those back roads and seen some silly folks running around with nets, chances are they were entomologists. Netting is a very useful tool to look for bees that don't come to attractive traps. Given that bees are often small and super fast, you may see some netting high jinks alongside the roads so watch out!
