Great Sunflower Project

I signed us up for the Great Sunflower Project. http://www.greatsunflower.org/en. This is an experiment to track bees in various areas. Participants plant Lemon Queen sunflowers, then watch the flowers for 15 minutes and count the bees that come. That sounded like something we could manage, even on a hot day. I ordered the seeds and am waiting for them to arrive. I think we'll plant them along the side of the shed.
