Chico State Herbarium Native Pollinator field trip
Stephen Fischer Photography
You will find here images captured from a
field trip organized by the Chico State University Herbarium up in the
mountains of Butte county about 40 miles east of Chico, California. This
trip was a follow-up to a day long course at Chico State on native
pollinators taught by the instructors: Rob Schlising and Robert Irwin.
They also assisted me in identifying some of the various pollinating
insects shown here. The course was quite informative and helped open my
understanding to this little known but vast world on these species of insects. You can
learn more about the courses offered here:
