🌼 Meet Ramgoat Dashalong, or Yellow Alder! Its delicate yellow flowers open in the morning, attract bees and butterflies, and thrive in Hua Hin’s tropical climate. A simple, beautiful garden plant. 🌿

The Trickster of the Butterfly Word: The VICEROY. Looking a lot like the monarch butterfly, the viceroy, also has a bad taste to birds and the bright orange and black stripes warn of this! 🦋
How to tell them apart? The viceroy has a black smile on its back–like a joker's smile! 🃏😊
I've noticed the bees try and cheat to get the nectar from these Geraniums, by accessing the back of the flower!

It’s raining Nicotiana alata blooms. Hopefully, they kept the night-flying #moths in good stead as the flowers are mostly faded by this afternoon photo and will be refreshed overnight.

While some insects like monarch #butterflies can fly hundreds or even thousands of miles, many important #pollinators have home ranges no larger than 400 or 500 meters. Some are even smaller. So in order for them to survive, they must find something to eat within that home range. #bees
Excited to announce our new paper in Journal of Applied Ecology! @jappliedecology.bsky.social
'Heathland pollinator communities are more strongly influenced by land management than by honey bee competition' 🐝🐑🪰
