Details: The newly formed Australian Native Bee Association is looking for a logo.

Please help us with your ideas and designs. We would like a design that encompasses the diversity of all Australian native bees (social stingless bees, as well as semi-social and solitary species) and must include the initials ANBA. Ideally it could be used in colour or black & white formats. References to indigenous culture are welcomed. Upon submitting your design, please feel free to explain the inspiration and influences that went into your creation.

Please send your design to: Trevor Weatherhead queenbee50@bigpond.com, by 31 May.
