Awesome (really!) Video about Pollinators
If you've ever wanted to see pollinators at work, up close, photographer Louie Schwartzberg produced a video that gave me a new appreciation of hummingbirds, bees, bats and butterflies. The Hidden Beauty of Pollination, a TED talk, is 7 minutes long and absolutely worth it! (Don't forget to click on the Toggle Full Screen command at the top right of the video.)
If you've never seen a bat in action, here's a screenshot:
Considering that honeybees are disappearing due to colony collapse disorder (CCD), and that bats are disappearing due to white-nose syndrome, please spread the word about this video.
Personally I don't want to hand-pollinate all my crops, as some of us are known to do with zucchini! Thankfully we have an estimated 350-400 native bees in our area, but even so....
