    And making a spectacular comeback as more places replace non-native plants & allow natural habitats to return.
    See article from UC Davis Dept of Entomology and Nematology: Lots of info and photos, but none as beautiful as Jackie's.

    Hi!

    Thanks for the comments!

    And also for the link to the article about Silver Bees. I worked with Leslie (the biologist mentioned) a bit when she was studying them in Bodega Bay.

    :) Jackie
