A Matter of Life and Death: RSVP for Skulls Members’ Night!<br>
[blank.gif]<br>
What better time to contemplate life, death, and flesh-eating beetles than<br>
twilight? Immerse yourself in Skulls, our newest exhibit, at this very<br>
special, Members-only evening on Friday, June 6, from 6:30–9:30 pm. Get a<br>
unique perspective on how skulls shape scientific understanding: See the<br>
world like a predator, analyze the evolution of our own species’ skulls, and<br>
meet Academy Field Associate Ray “Bones” Bandar, whose 60 years of<br>
collecting changed the Academy forever. An RSVP is all that’s required to<br>
join us—please confirm your attendance today!<br>

Dive In: 2014 Philippine Biodiversity Expedition<br>
[blank.gif]<br>
The largest scientific-diving expedition in Academy history is currently<br>
underway! We’re exploring an area that may be the “center of the center” of<br>
biodiversity, diving to unheard-of depths (try close to 500 feet!), and<br>
finding new species.<br>
Learn more. <br>

Member Profile: For the Love of Science<br>
[blank.gif]<br>
When Victoria Reeder and Roy Williams each signed up for an Academy photo<br>
class, they were just looking for composition tips—not romance. “But perhaps<br>
the old advice is right,” says Victoria. “Do what you love, and love will<br>
find you.” Congratulations to our happy members, who eloped to Yosemite in<br>
May!<br>
Do what you love.<br>

Native Bees<br>

Happy National Pollinator Week, June 16–22!<br>
[blank.gif]<br>
Ever notice the wooden box full of various-sized branches on our living<br>
roof? That’s our native-bee hotel! Native bees can be 200 times more<br>
efficient than honeybees at pollinating, and 1,500 species call California<br>
home. Learn more about ecosystem-supporting, native bees from our Living<br>
Roof docents!<br>
