Good morning world:-)))
Today I’m sowing pollinator mixes, getting rid of the horrifically mildewed sweet peas and sowing annuals....
You can’t have too many calendula right?!?

'Waiting for Wings' by the award-winning Milwaukee author and illustrator Lois Ehlert was published in 2001 by Harcourt and is a celebration of butterfly pollinators & gives instructions for growing a butterfly garden! Learn more about Ehlert here: https://t.co/Cxswmdfawb #flora
Beetles have been pollinators for millions of years and were among the first insects to visit flowers. Celebrate these abundant pollinators for #PollinatorWeek by exploring the #beetles of Russia & western Europe in #BHLib thanks to @NHM_Library ➡️ https://t.co/a4Qss9u77B
We're celebrating #PollinatorWeek! All's fair in love and #pollination. #science #biology #nationalpollinatorweek
🌸Continuing w/ #PollinatorWeek, here are 2 examples of floral designs on Chippewa basketry. One is made w/ seed beads stitched onto the bark lid of a c1945 sewing basket (INTR 00714). The other is done in quillwork on the birch bark panel of a 1930s wastebasket (INTR 00342).🌼
It's #PollinatorWeek! Pollinators are responsible for 1 in 3 bites of food we eat. Bees are important pollinators. Explore the natural history and economy of bees of the British Isles in "British Bees" (1866), in #BHLib via @Fisher_Library ➡️ https://t.co/HwdjbC1kwL 🐝🐝🐝

1/3 of the world's food is pollination dependent. Many wild animals also need pollination dependent food to survive, yet pollinators are decreasing!

Illustration of Storm, a black-and-white ruffed lemur from ZSL. These lemurs considered to be the largest pollinators, as they feed, pollen sticks to the ruffs of fur around their faces and gets transported from tree to tree. Also they are sadly critically endangered!
It's World Bee Day! Help us support and preserve our tireless pollinators by donating to The HoneyBee Conservancy!

By mowing less this spring and summer your can give clover, buttercups, dandelions and more a chance to flower for pollinators like bees, butterflies, hoverflies and moths. And you can enjoy seeing which flowers emerge to add some natural joy and colour to your garden! 🐝🌻
Hawthorn in full bloom is a joy to behold! However, in #folklore May blossom is closely associated with death! To attract pollinators the flowers emit triethylamine which is one of the first chemicals produced when living tissue starts to decay. #wildflowerhour #folklorethursday
