Triangles
It seems there are a lot of special weeks nowadays, but just last week was National Pollinator Week. A very important one for us to promote and pay attention to the latest news about them. While my post may be late in mentioning it, it is never too late to learn about pollinators, how important they are to our food chain, and what we can do to promote habitat for them.
I was recently scanning some slides from my archives, and this image reminded me that Pollinator week was just here recently. Another image rescued from Picture Purgatory. I loved all the triangles in this image, from the basic form of the coneflowers, to the trio of coneflowers, to even the shape of the Red Admiral butterfly. So I thought it worth a mention for those who don’t know much about it. Go hug a pollinator today. Ok, maybe not, perhaps better to plant them some habitat instead of the hug and promote pesticide alternatives.
I’d never heard of pollinator week – and I spend a fair amount of time chasing them. Great to see a butterfly image from you…
I’d not ever heard of pollinator week before…but somehow I am not surprised that there is one!
Beautiful image…that is a tiny butterfly with a big job!
Ha- I saved one pollinator today: a tiny bumble bee with heavily loaden little pollen sacs apparently got lost in the heavy rain today so she was sitting on my balcony floor and could hardly move. I took her up – she gladly grabbed my finger and I put her on one of the blooms of my clivia. She is now sleeping there and I am sure she will be happily gone tomorrow morning when the sun is shining…
I just love these little buggers!
Without the pollinators there would be no flowers (or food). Nice image.
