We’re excite to well come Julia Mahood, creator of MapmyDCA.com and President of the Georgia Beekeepers Association, to share her expertise on drones:
“It’s All About the Drones”
Honey bee drones are the Rodney Dangerfields of the bee world, they (often) get no respect! Learn all about the amazing drones and their mysterious drone congregation areas (and how to find them using the other kind of drone) at this informative talk.
Julia Mahood is a Georgia Master Crafts Beekeeper who has been keeping bees since 2004. She created the citizen science website MapMyDca.com to gather data on drone congregation areas. Julia was awarded the Georgia Beekeeper of the year in 2018. A graphic artist, she designed the Georgia “Save the honey bee” license plate. She is passionate about education and teaches beekeeping in Georgia prisons. Julia is currently the President of the Georgia Beekeepers Association.
