— June 22-28 is National Pollinator Week 2020. The health of pollinators is critical to our environment and ecosystems. You can see an assortment of pollinators here in these pages from bees to bugs and birds. Each one plays an important role in propagating pollen and causing plants to make fruits and seeds. It is through this pollen transfer from plant to plant that genetic material is moved, allowing plants to reproduce, give us fruits, prevent soil erosion, and more. This shot above was made at Taylor Park in Granger Lake. Lantanas are known to attract butterflies. So, when I saw that lantana bush, it was just a matter of seconds before I could spot a butterfly. This beautiful Pipevine Swallowtail has an average life span of two weeks only.
