Aidan Koch and Lisa Schonberg spent a month in Hawaii carrying out a multimedia documentation of the native Hylaeus bees at over 20 field sites on Kauai, Oahu and the Big Island. Hylaeus habitat is increasingly rare, and the 60-something known species have all suffered precipitous declines; several species have been petitioned to be listed as endangered.
This book includes writing from both Koch and Schonberg, interviews with naturalists, and Koch’s watercolors and drawings. Schonberg also composed new pieces of music based on the soundscapes and character of the field sites they visited.
