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.

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.
I spotted this bug pollinating some yellow flowers in the fields beyond Captains Wood on my walk to the pub last week
I had planted them for the pleasure of it; I grew them without ever thinking of painting them.

Water lilies are a well studied clade of plants because their large flowers with multiple unspecialized parts were initially considered to represent the floral pattern of the earliest flowering plants, and later genetic studies confirmed their evolutionary position as basal angiosperms. Analyses of floral morphology and molecular characteristics and comparisons with a sister taxon, the family Cabombaceae, indicate, however, that the flowers of extant water lilies with the most floral parts are more derived than the genera with fewer floral parts. Genera with more floral parts, Nuphar, Nymphaea, Victoria, have a beetle pollination syndrome, while genera with fewer parts are pollinated by flies or bees, or are self- or wind-pollinated Thus, the large number of relatively unspecialized floral organs in the Nymphaeaceae is not an ancestral condition for the clade.

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