The Great Sunflower project

my favored sunflower photo from 2008


Do you have the time to sit with a sunflower and count the minutes till a bee shows up? Well, after thirty minutes you can go do something else if no bee has shown up.

My friend, ZM, at the school passed on the link to The Great Sunflower Project being run by Gretchen LeBuhn, who is an associate professor at San Francisco State University.

anyway, I thought it was a great idea so I got us signed up and if all goes well we will participate in this nation wide study of bees.
