We are again in complete awe of the talent and creativity of the artists and poets in our community!We review every one of the nearly 200 works that were submitted. Four jurists —with widely different tastes & backgrounds— have so far selected the top 40 or so pieces, and two other jurists have contributed their input. We’re looking specifically for how a piece communicates the Spark! idea, visually and/or in words— and we always wish we had room for them all!We are now wandering around the museum with colorful printouts and poems, looking at empty wall space and asking ourselves, “do these pieces work together? How about displaying them here? Or here? Or…!” The show runs from May 1 through October 31 and we hope you all get a chance to come see some amazing, evocative, intriguing, and fantastic works.#VermontArtists #putABirdOnIt #SparkBird #SparkStory #ArtShow #BirdsofVermontMuseum #Art #Create ...

Feed the bees, don't buy the bees! VCE biologist Spencer Hardy was recently on #wcaxtv to talk about the trend of buying bees for your backyard garden. He cites the potential risks this poses to native bee species because it could accidentally introduce harmful parasites, pathogens, and even harmful new bees into your area. Instead of introducing new bees into your garden, try adding a wide variety of native plants. There are over 300 species of native bees in Vermont, and they all have different flower preferences and active periods during the warm months. By having many different flowers that bloom throughout the year, you can support a lot of these species in their quest for food. He also touches on introducing #ladybeetles to your garden, for people who are wondering if this is harmful as well. Check out the full video here: www.wcax.com/2023/03/06/why-scientists-are-warning-people-not-buy-bees-online/ Want to learn more about Vermont's native bees? You're in luck! Spencer will be hosting a talk at the North Branch Nature Center tomorrow March 8th from 6:30-8:00pm.
