Wenn ich jetzt noch wüsste, was für ein Tier ich da mit der Kamera erwischt habe ... sorry, don't know what kind of #animal this is.

Mosaiklibelle, wahrscheinlich. Was habe ich gelauert, bis ich das Bild hatte. Sie ruht ja kaum.

📰 Losing Wild Pollinators Means Losing Vital Nutrients

🌏 Nepal: A year‑long study in Jumla shows that bees, hoverflies, and other wild pollinators quietly supply **over 20% of essential vitamins** to smallholder farming communities.

🐝 When insects decline, diets collapse. Pollinator‑dependent crops like beans, pumpkins, and apples form the backbone of local nutrition, especially for children already facing high rates of stunting.

🌼 But there is hope. Simple, low‑cost steps like planting native wildflowers, protecting bee habitat, and reducing pesticides can boost pollinator numbers, raise farm income, and restore nutrient security.

📰 Butterflies Are Relocating Rapidly as the Planet Warms

🌍 Earth: A global analysis of **1,758 species across 105 countries** shows butterflies are relocating at remarkable scale, expanding, contracting, and climbing to new elevations as climate pressure intensifies.

🦋 Tropical species are surging into new territories, while many temperate species are losing ground to agriculture and habitat disturbance.

📈 Roughly 1 in 10 of the world’s 19,000 species now appear in places they weren’t historically found, a signal of profound ecological change.

I know some people think I am going overboard with my poison story. No. One year ago, have photo proof, this tree had so many insects, including bees, that I could hear them. Now? Must sit for 20 mins before I see ONE insect. Ja. One year people,what the hell are we doing!?

📰 First Pollinator District Development Helps Bees and Butterflies

🌎 Colorado: A master-planned community called Baseline is integrating pollinator habitat, native landscaping, research, and public education directly into its design through a "Pollinator District" model.

🦋 The initiative aims to support bees, butterflies, and other pollinators whose habitats are often fragmented by conventional development.

🤝 The project highlights a practical solution: building pollinator conservation into new communities rather than treating development and biodiversity as competing goals.

📰 Indigenous Beekeepers Safeguard Native Stingless Bees

🌎 Brazil: Guarani beekeeper Marcio Karai and his community are expanding efforts to care for native stingless bee species and pass traditional knowledge to younger generations.

🐝 Community members transfer wild nests into managed wooden hives and maintain meliponaries that support local pollinator populations.

🤝 Indigenous stewardship offers a locally led conservation model that protects pollinators while preserving cultural knowledge and ecological resilience.

🇫🇷 Une autre rencontre du jour : un Æschne bleue, une impressionnante libellule dont la taille du corps peut atteindre près de 8 centimètres. Il s'agit d'un mâle ici.

Bonne soirée! 👋

🇬🇧 Another encounter of the day: a blue hawker, an impressive dragonfly whose body size can reach almost 8 centimeters. It's a male here.

Have a nice evening! 👋

📰 Forest Restoration Efforts Help Monarchs Hold Their Ground

🌎 Mexico: New monitoring data indicate that eastern monarch butterfly populations increased for a second consecutive year in their Mexican wintering grounds.

🦋 Researchers reported larger areas of monarch-covered forest compared with the two previous years, suggesting a period of relative stability after long declines.

🔬 Habitat restoration efforts, including milkweed plantings across North America, are helping monarchs persist despite ongoing pressures.

🪰 This very small fly landed on my finger last summer. Look at the bands on its tiny, tiny wings.

📷 Pic is a little blurry (had to use one hand quickly to get the shot), but it looks like a "biting midge" (Culicoides spp.). They need a better publicist, evidently.

🍂 It's one of a population in the thick layer of decaying leaves being used as a natural mulch nearby. Bugs like these are what Brown Thrashers and other birds are after when they are looking through leaves for food. We can support declining bird populations by just keeping leaves on the ground or as mulch in beds.

Am #Insektensamtag kommt die #Hirschkäfer.in aus dem Beitrag zum FotoVorschlag 'Heute gibt es . . .' noch mal groß raus!

Die Übergänge zum Makro sind ja durchaus fliessend, ich würde diese Nahaufnahmen jedoch allein aufgrund der Größe des Objekts (gut 5 cm) noch dem Begriff 'Detail - kein Makro' #FotoVorschlag zuordnen.

One of the most beautiful butterflies is the Eastern (Canadian) Tiger Swallowtail or Papilio glaucus. The male flaunts yellow and black stripes like that of a tiger, is very large and colorful and has a wingspan of 3 - 5 inches. This one was enjoying the Lilacs in my backyard in Guelph Ontario Canada.
