All pollinators are unique, but they share some basic needs. 🧵 1: They need flowering plants that provide pollen and nectar for food. They especially rely on plants native to their region and need access to flowers that bloom at different times.
As described here, butterflies, bees, dragonflies, beetles, spiders, mussels, and other invertebrates sustain life as we know it. Yet many are declining due to habitat loss, pesticide use, climate change, and more. Learn how we can all help: xerces.org/publications/b…
