The initial absorption of Krystle’s profile was staggering. Heraccomplishments and career are beyond. (a favorite word of exclamation). Forexample. National Geographic Explorer, TEDx Speaker, Artist, CommunityScientist, and Photographer. But what resonated with me was Krystle’s new book,The ABCs of California’s Native Bees (on Amazon). She is a pre-eminent Bee expert.And bees have been on my environmental conscience for a long time. We needbees. Krystle is passionate, delightful, insightful, devoted, caring, andwondrously inspirational. This was a rare and precious interview. We talkedabout her book, and even AI, and the daily habits of rare native bees, savingbees, her breathtaking photography, sometimes waiting a week to photograph arare bee, TikTok, Jurassic Park (not necessarily the movie!), and so much more.Love off topic. Krystle was gracious, replete with endless knowledge andexperience. And perhaps to be continued. And our synchronicity: besides my loveof bees and showing Krystle a jar of honey, I recently purchased from Kuwait,we’re both graduates of Big Ten schools. Nebraska and Rutgers. This interviewwas as good as it gets.” Calvin https://www.youtube.com/c/ConversationswithCalvinWetheSpecIEs 680 Interviews/Videos 9200 SUBSCRIBERS GLOBAL Reach. Earth Life. Amazing People.
