Oregon Bee Atlas on iNat

The Oregon Bee Atlas has an iNaturalist project. It is really just a database filter: it accumulates any bee images from Oregon. You could add such a filter to your own iNaturalist dashboard, which would flood you with observations - 18 from yesterday, half Bombus. With the OBA project, you can just occasionally scroll back a week for any really interesting finds.

Even more useful, details on the zillion specimens processed by OBA in 2019: Oregon Bee Atlas: wild bee findings from 2019. The scope of the OBA collection is impressive. More recent data coming.
