Who or what is a pollinator? A pollinator is a bird, bat, bee, butterfly, moth, small mammal ....to name only a few... that works feverishly as it feeds off the pollen and transports those grains and essentially fertilizes plants that we rely on for the success of our gardens and crops. According to several sources, the majority of the crops that we like to eat and provide most of our nutrition use animal-mediated pollination. Whoa. What a BIG job for such little folks. And, unfortunately, some of these species are struggling to survive, including bees. Given that information, the message contained in my edited photo speaks for itself.
