Ever wonder how a ground-nesting bee creates their nest? Check out the video below! • Out of the 20,000 bee species in the world, 70% actually make their nests underground. Ground-nesting bees including mining bees, cellophane bees, sweat bees, long-horned bees, and squash bees build their nests by creating small conical piles that lead to underground tunnel systems. This is where female bees lay their eggs and where bee larvae develop into adults! • Video by Amber Barnes, Pollinator Partnership

Did you know that there's such thing as a sqush bee? Named the 2025 Pollinator of the Year, squash bees (Xenoglossa) are a group of bees known for their pollination of members of the squash family- containing, zucchini, pumpkin, and gourds. Check out our first installment of the Pollinator Week Live series where we interviewed squash bee expert Dr. Sue Chan to learn more about how humans stewarded the domestication of squash crops with the help of this little pollinator.

We know that leafcutter bees use their strong jaws like scissors to cut leaf bits which they then use to line their cavity nests to protect their larvae, but have you ever seen a leafcutter bee in action? Check out this amazing video taken by Amber Barnes, our Conservation Program Manager, of a leafcutter bee cutting a leaf! She will then carry this leaf bit and use it to line her nest for protection from the elements. So cool! #pollinator #pollinators #bee #bees #nativebees #pollinatorhabitat #

Happy #NationalMothWeek! Did you know that there are approximately 160,000 species of moths worldwide? • Many moth species are excellent pollinators and are active at night when most other pollinators are resting or sleeping. Nocturnal moths are generally attracted to flowers that are white or dull in color with lots of available nectar, while moths active during the day carry out a similar behavior to butterflies and can be seen foraging on a variety of colorful flowers. • Seen in the video bel

Sit back, relax, and leave the leaves for pollinators! While leaf litter might be unsightly, this layer provides critical habitat for Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies) to survive the winter. Here are a few other ways our butterflies and moths utilize fallen leaves: 1. Fallen leaves provide camouflage for cocoons and chrysalises to safely develop, some caterpillars even use the leaves to form their cocoons! 2. Some caterpillar species, such as the red-banded hairstreak, consume decaying leaves.

We ❤️ native plant gardens! Here are five of our favorite reasons you should incorporate native plants into your landscape: 🐝 Native flowering plants = food for pollinators 🛠️ Native plants require less maintenance overall 🌱 Native plants have deep root systems that provide erosion control. ☠️ Native plants are generally more resistant to pests and disease, reducing the need for pesticides that can be harmful to pollinators. ☔️ Native plant gardens are more drought tolerant because they are b
