Students learned how hummingbirds and various insects support our ecosystem with their cross-pollination.
Pollinators are attracted to a number of plants, but seem to favor blue and purple flowering plants the most. Lavender and blue sage are favorites in my garden. The next time you are adding to your garden, consider adding a few of the following:
Herbs: Lavender, Sage, Cilantro, Thyme, Fennel.
Annuals: Sunflower, Calendula, Poppy, Heliotrope, Zinnia.
Perennials: Geranium, Buttercup, Aster, Hollyhock.
Pollinator Planets. Two hanging baskets tied together. Filled with Bits of Ben's fur, twigs, hose pipe, ivy, old bark, fluff from the tumble drier, small branches and moss. I am really pleased with it.

A variety of insects crawling through the flowers of an elder bush shortly after rainfall.
I wonder if any of those insects will act as pollinators?

This is what my field looks like right now - covered in goldenrod that is covered with all sorts of pollinating insects.
There were at least 30 bees buzzing around the little pussy willow tree in the front yard this afternoon. A few of them were kind enough to pose for some photos for me.

A.Three different types of pollinators including a bee, a beetle, and a fly all visited this plant.
B.The bee matched my prediction for this plant but the bee and beetle were a surprise because I had never seen them near clover.
C.The total number of pollinators per a flower was 11.2. It was 11.2 because I saw 4 different types of pollinator’s times 16/10 is 11.2.
D.My site was slightly higher than 10.
E. A pollinator service could affect air quality because it creates more pollination which allows plants to reproduce and grow more efficiently. If there were more plants available in an area than they would create more respiration which would help process CO2 better which would lead to better air quality in the area.
