About the event

What is a Bee Waggle Dance? Dr Bug Explains Bee Behaviour
Dr Shasta Henry brings her bee expertise with energy and enthusiasm to a one-off free event.

About this Event

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.

This talk is part of the State Library and Archives of Tasmania's exhibition and talk series.
