SUMMARY:Bee Day at The Morrab Library
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday 28th August\, we will be celebrating all things bees with the West Penwith Embroidered Bees Project and a talk from the Bumblebee Conservation Trust.  \n   \nThe West Penwith Embroidered Bee Project aims to raise awareness of the 270 different species of bee that live in Britain\, and their varied needs\, while also teaching embroidery skills\, fostering connection and raising money for wildflower projects. Find out more about the project over on our blog.  \nOn Wednesday 28th August\, 10am – 12pm\, the founder of the project Vicks Harrison will be leading a free embroidery workshop to learn how to make a bee to be stitched into a big art quilt. \nNo experience is necessary and attendees do not need to bring any fabric\, thread or equipment\, but any donations of material to contribute to the piece are always welcomed. Booking is essential and please email Vicks (vickyvicks@btinternet.com) to do so. \nThe quilt\, in its present but ever-growing form\, will also be on display in the Natural Sciences Room for the duration of the day. It will hang alongside a display of books about bees (which Library members can borrow on the day) as well as poems about bees written by Vivienne Tregenza. Pop in anytime between 10am – 3.30pm to see the display. \nIn the afternoon\, Pip Cook from the Bumblebee Conservation Trust will be giving a talk about Bumblebees in Cornwall. Find out more about it here and email the library (enquiries@morrablibrary.org.uk) before 19th August to be added to the ballot for a ticket.

SUMMARY:Library Talks | Bumblebees in Cornwall
DESCRIPTION:Our second talk this month will be from Pip Cook\, Bumblebee Conservation Trust’s SW Project Officer\, for an introduction to the bumblebees we can find in Cornwall. The talk will be taking place in the Reading Room at 2pm on Wednesday 28th August and will be part of a celebration of bees at the Library taking place throughout that day (find out more in this blog post). In Pip’s role\, she is particularly focusing on the Moss carder bumblebee (Bombus muscorum)\, one of the rarest and most threatened bumblebee species in the UK. It is a beautiful ginger-tailed bumblebee with a short velvety coat that was once widespread in the UK and is now found mostly in small\, fragmented populations. The project involves collecting data on the Moss carder’s abundance and distribution at two key sites on Cornwall’s north coast\, Penhale and Gwithian and Upton Towans and finding out more about its habitat needs. Bumblebee Conservation Trust hope this information will inform our conservation practices and hopefully help to reverse the Moss carder bumblebee’s decline. Tickets are allocated by a ballot system. Please email enquiries@morrablibrary.org.uk or call 01736 364474 to be entered into the ballot for a ticket. The ballot closes on Monday 19th August. Entry to this event is free but donations are welcomed to help support The Morrab Library (suggested £5). Refreshments will be provided after the talk. (Bumblebee photo credit Nick Withers)
