⚠️Case in point: Bombus fervidus . The first photo by @beesnativeplants offers a general snapshot of the rare bumblebee, which is 1 of 9 bumble bee species currently on the New York Natural Heritage Program Rare Species List, ranked in the category of "rarest/most imperiled".
In collaboration with PANYNJ, we have embarked on an ambitious goal of implementing new planting and maintenance strategies to build perennial, self-sustaining pollinator corridors at their sites where bees, monarch butterflies, and other at-risk species can thrive.
