  3. 🐝 NEW: University of #Melbourne researchers logged more than 5,000 bee-flower interactions to map where five native bee species live across the city and which indigenous #plants feed them.

    Since #nativebees travel only about 100 meters from their nests, connected backyard #gardens can work like a bee highway linking parks and green spaces.

  9. Presque anéantis par les canicules et la sécheresse, les cyclamens se dépêchent de fleurir depuis qu'il y a eu un peu d'eau. J'aime particulièrement ceux qui sont naturellement devenus blancs alors qu'ils étaient roses.

  27. It's firefly time in Bellingen

    * "In the early evening, flashing lights can often be seen cruising around in the forest. These are the little lanterns on the underside of the abdomen of a carnivorous beetle of the family lampyridae. These beetles have been misnamed fireflies. It is believed that the flashing light is used by males and females to attract each other." >>
    wettropics.gov.au/fireflies

    * Tidy gardens and landscape maintenance equipment unleash a blitzkrieg on the little fairies of the soil. The ubiquitous lawn mowers "mowing the grass" like a military strategy, so no soil micro-diversity shall survive. Line trimmers, debris blowers, chainsaws, bobcats, bulldozers and a dash of chemicals complete the terraforming.

    * Fireflies under threat from habitat loss, pesticides and light pollution
