Help protect North America's premier pollinators by learning how to create
habitat for them in your own backyard! The newly released "Wild Bee Gardens"
app lets you discover the dazzling diversity of North America's native bees
and the flowers they visit. With over 300 BEE-UTIFUL Retina quality
photographs and 100 pages of guides, Wild Bee Gardens offers a delightful
and informative introduction to the essential world of native bees.

Written by Celeste Ets-Hokin, this app was designed to inspire an
appreciation for the importance and diversity of North America's native
bees.  Featuring first-ever electronic links between native bees and many of
their favorite flowers, Wild Bee Gardens also provides gardeners with a
unique tool for actively participating in their conservation. 

In addition to detailed native bee and plant profile pages, Wild Bee Gardens
contains extensive background and educational material in the form of
guides; these include a comprehensive introduction to North American native
bees and practical advice about how to create habitat for these vital
pollinators in our residential gardens. 

Topics covered in the guides include:

*	the role of native bees in our natural ecosystems
*	the ecology and life cycles of native bees
*	how to create a successful bee garden
*	how to identify the native bee visitors that will appear in these
gardens

All of the guides are illustrated with spectacular images of native bees and
their habitat, making the Wild Bee Gardens app an excellent educational tool
for students of all ages.  

The easy to navigate and beautiful look of the app were made possible by the
design and development team of Arlo and Rebecca Armstrong.  

The iPad version of Wild Bee Gardens is available now on the Apple App
Store, with an iPhone version coming soon.  Purchasing the Wild Bee Gardens
app for iPad entitles you to also receive the upcoming iPhone version, as
well as download of all future enhancements to the Wild Bee Gardens app, at
no additional cost.
