Garden pollinator.

The last of the summer's sweet moments.

Taken in a Pollinator Garden in Almonte, Ontario.

Bees, bats, butterflies and hummingbirds make your garden grow.

Pollinators.

The agastache plant in my backyard is popular with hummingbirds and carpenter bees, as they're the only pollinators that can access the nectar. Hummingbirds don't like to share, however, so this one probably isn't thrilled to see that bee.

One of many on our climbing hydrangea.

Pearl Crescent on Eastern Daisy Fleabane

loved by long´tongued pollinators for it´s bountiful nectar

I was able to get this photo of a busy bumblebee amidst the milkweed at the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge, June 28, 2023. Frankly, with all of the milkweed that we saw, I expected to see more of them. Is that a part of the problem with reductions in bee populations?

Bee on a sunflower. Love how it blends in with the same colours as the flower.

Ants are not considered to be good pollinators but they certainly love flower nectar, like many other insects.

Missing them?

Large Skipper : Ochlodes sylvanus

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

always open (March thru July) always changing :)

I like the purple pollen from the poppy on the back of the bumblebee.

The bee is being caressed by the flower.

I think this is a Meadow Brown, but not being a flutter-biologist, I could be very wrong.
