I've got a little bioblitz project I've started that people may be interested in:
World Bee Day/Week 2024
May 17, 2024 - May 23, 2024
In recognition of Bees and all of the other pollinators.
I've noticed that 21% of the observations posted to Footzoom are of organisms that qualify as pollinators . These are posted by 62% the Footzoom Project members. So, I thought being aware of this bioblitz may be of interest.
Pollinators visit flowers to drink plant nectar or eat and gather pollen and transport pollen as they move about. These actions can result in the fertilization of host plants. Bees in particular do this but so do other invertebrates such as butterflies, moths, beetles, flies, and wasps as well as vertebrates such as birds, bats, and small mammals.

To raise awareness of the importance of pollinators, the threats they face and their contribution to sustainable development, the UN designated 20 May as World Bee Day.
The observation timing for this project has been spread to cover a week to allow as many pollinator enthusiasts as possible a chance to go out and observe.
