Our beekeeper has placed a very simple native pollinator survey device on the grounds of Foulkeways. The white, blue and yellow cups, known to be attractive to specific pollinators such as bumble bees, leaf cutter bees, alkali bees, etc. Each survey period is only 24 hours, but will be repeated at two week intervals all summer. There are signs by the cups identifying their purpose and giving a phone number to call for questions.
I don't know about bees, but this certainly was attractive to Peck's skippers.
