Honey bees and bumble bees, most people can name these two pollinators but did you know that there are many species of bumble bees. There are also other types of bees such as sweat bees and carpenter bees. Non-bee pollinators include paper wasps, syrphid flies and tachinid flies. Goldenrod is a primary fall food source for pollinators. Enjoy watching and learning about the various pollinators as they are busily gathering nectar and food to get them through the winter. Phil Careless will be our fearless leader as we enter the world of pollinators.
