Naturalist Rob Sandelin will give a program on native bees at Thursday’s meeting of the Black Hills Audubon Society.

Sandelin will offer insights such as the bee that incubates its eggs like chickens and the mother bee that gives her offspring a dab of a powerful antibiotic to protect them.

A former park naturalist at Yosemite, Olympic and Denali national parks, Sandelin is currently teaching field skills to student naturalists at the Environmental Education School of the Sky Valley Education Center in Monroe.

The meeting will be held at First Christian Church meeting hall, 701 Franklin St., Olympia. Social hour begins at 7 p.m. with the program at 7:30 p.m.
