Tamara Jones+FollowNighttime Pollinators Are Secret MVPsTurns out, the real heroes of our food supply aren’t just bees and butterflies you see during the day—it’s also the bats, moths, and fireflies working the night shift! New research found that these nocturnal pollinators are just as important for plant reproduction as their daytime counterparts. We barely notice them, but without their help, we’d be in serious trouble. Maybe it’s time we show some love to the creatures making moves while we sleep! #NatureIsWild #Pollinators #NightShift #Science40Share
Jamie Brown+FollowThe Dynamic Duo Your Garden NeedsWho knew sunflowers and zinnias were the ultimate pollinator magnets? Plant these two together and your garden will be buzzing with bees, butterflies, and even hummingbirds. Plus, they’re super easy to grow—just sow the seeds after frost and watch the magic happen. Pro tip: Don’t let the sunflowers shade out your zinnias, and pick the right cultivars for max pollinator action. Your veggie patch (and Instagram feed) will thank you! #gardeningtips #pollinators #sunflowers #Home30Share
Zachary Gutierrez+FollowBees Are in Trouble—Here’s Why It MattersBees aren’t just dodging pesticides anymore—now they’re up against warzones, microplastics, and even light pollution! A new report says these threats could wipe out pollinators in the next decade, which is bad news for our food and the planet. But there’s hope: from planting more flowers to pushing for better laws, we can actually help turn things around. Every little action counts—your garden could be a bee’s new favorite hangout! #SaveTheBees #Pollinators #EcoFriendly #NatureMatters #ClimateAction #Science70Share
James Brady+FollowBees Are Forgetting Flowers?!Scientists just found out that microplastics are messing with bees’ memories—yep, they’re literally forgetting which flowers to visit. This means less pollination, which could seriously mess with our food supply. Even honey isn’t safe; microplastics have been found in most samples! With bees already struggling from pesticides and climate change, this is a big deal. The good news? Stuff like biochar can help filter out plastics, and we can all cut down on single-use plastics to help bees out. Wild, right? #SaveTheBees #Microplastics #EcoFriendly #Pollinators #PlasticPollution #Science90Share
