Did you know that bees do a 'waggle dance' for communication?
And that they flap their wings so hard they become negatively charged?
And that Tasmania has a native bee that travels alone, never in a swarm?
Dr Shasta Henry brings her energy and scientific knowledge to Nipaluna/Hobart to explain why bees do what they do.
She is the manager of the Terrestrial Invertebrate Collections at the Museum of South Australia Adelaide/Tarntanya.
She is originally from Lutruwita/Tasmania where she studied invertebrate ecology in the Wilderness World Heritage area.
This in-person event will also be available online. Please book a seat for the in-person event using the Get tickets button on this page, or use this for the livestream.
