I dreamt I found a whip scorpion hiding between the bricks of my porch.*
I would love to find a whip scorpion hiding between the bricks of my porch.
* This dream inspired by yesterday observing this mason bee investigating the gaps in mortar between the bricks to find a nesting site for the year.

Now up, the keynote I've been waiting for:
Dr. Kevin C. Matteson on "Pollinator Conservation in Cities". Living in NYC, this is a subject to which I myself am devoted.

I get lots of Agapostemon in my garden. I'm sure they nest in my garden; I've yet to find where.
Augochlora pura is probably my favorite of the metallic Halictinae, for their perfect shiny green, and because I observe them nesting in the rotting logs I've placed in my garden for habitat.
