Track pollinators like you track birds.
Bee the Bridge is a community pollinator tracker built by students across the Montour School District as our FIRST LEGO League Innovation Project. Log bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds at your favorite gardens, browse hotspots, and help build a living map of pollinator activity.

How it works
See it, log it, help science.
Every sighting you record helps researchers and gardeners understand where pollinators are thriving and where they need more support.
Log a sighting
Note the species, count, and location — just like an eBird checklist, but for bees, butterflies, and more.
Grow the record
Your data joins the community feed, building a real-time picture of pollinator health across the region.
