@citymousegarden.bsky.socialIs there anything more exciting than 1st blooms from a new #NativePlants species in our garden? Nope! Verbesina alternifolia (Wingstem) blooms until 1st frost, host plant for Silvery Checkerspot & Summer Azure #butterflies, Xerces special value for #pollinators plant.

@citymousegarden.bsky.socialBeen outside in garden so much lately I have met new bugs every day. This Corn Earworm Moth, who has an amazing fuzzy upper body, is supposedly nocturnal but have been out feeding on Sedum & Phlox.

@jazdumoz.bsky.socialSedum blooming late this year; white rather than deep pink?
Last few years, main #pollinators have been bumblebees in several sizes, wasps, butterflies, moths.
This year: mostly honeybees.
2 small, 1 large bumblebee. 2 wasps.
Monarch butterfly comes back for an encore.

Basic bee facts every day at 3pm.
33.
Like all #insects bees have exoskeletons.
Their skeleton is on the outside.
Once they have hatched from their cocoons as adults they cannot grow any bigger.

Predators v Pollinator
I set the Mantis on the flower, trying to get a picture of it when the Bee landed next to it. The Mantis did not care at all that I was in it's face, or the the bee was trying to scratch it's eyes out.
@alienwomble.bsky.socialBusy, buzzing fluffy #pollinators of #Brazil, #Mamangava 🐝🌻🌺 build nests that are vulnerable to heat/ #climatechange. #Palmoil and #soy monocultures are a massive threat.

@beeshaven.bsky.socialHow to do Pollinator Friendly Fall Garden Cleanup
A gentler fall cleanup can leave more shelter and resources for pollinators. Learn which garden tasks to tackle now and which parts are better left in place.

@minouette.bsky.socialso I thought the columbine was a good fit. I found some metallic red pigment and made some ink for his ruby red throat.
@squirrelmanor.bsky.socialOur asters are in bloom now, and will soon embrace the steadfast bumblebees in final sweetness as a resting place, not a meal. “To tend asters is a gesture of hope, a small and profound act of benevolence.” www.resilience.org/stories/2026... #nature #pollinators #nativeplants
