Heath Fritillary : Melitaea athalia

Chrysotoxum bicinctum. A lovely hoverfly with a bold yellow & black abdomen and dark brown smudges on the wings. It is easily mistaken for a wasp. Seen throughout England & Wales in shrubby grassland, mostly in the south. I saw this one in Bewick, East Sussex.

The last of the summer's sweet moments.

White Admiral : Limenitis camilla

I don’t the know the name of this pollinator but I am aware, there are many types of pollinators and not just bees and they all do a very important job.

Light on the path.

By the looks of this honey bee it's been very busy collecting. HWW

Doubling up for the missed days of Pollinator Week. This Common buckeye butterfly (Junonia coenia) was along the gravel path at the Springfield Conservation Nature Center. Recent rains had made the minerals a bit more accessible.

An Eastern Swallowtail butterfly sips nectar from these beautiful flowers, and in the process the flower's pollen becomes attached.

As the butterfly moves from flower to flower drinking more nectar, the pollen is transferred.

Pollinating Daisies in my yard in Chester County, PA.

With all the stories about problems with honey bees, I am always very happy to see these pollinators in my yard.

Close up of a bee orchid flower. If you see carefully, the dark part of the flower is shaped and coloured very much like a bee - in particular a female bee. This fools the male bees and they get onto the flower in a futile attempt to mate. This, however, serves the plant's purpose of pollination.

The New England asters have come into full bloom this past week and the pollinators are making good use of the opportunity. The Great Spangled Fritillaries and honeybees were abundant but two species of bumblebees, the Meadow Fritillaries, Pearl Crescents, Sulpur and Cabbage white butterflies, as well as a variety of wasps and sweatbees also made a showing.

I only saw one Monarch and a single black swallowtail, but they have been fairly regular visitors this month....so at least in our immediate area they have not been a no-show this season.

One of many on our climbing hydrangea.
