Description
Not Without Bees! A blue jigsaw puzzle, with a large yellow flower blossom and pieces with honeybees missing, is presented as the backdrop to detailing the importance of bees and flowers. Flowers are an integral part of energy transfer in food webs. Seed and fruit production sustain life for organisms big and small, including man. Commercial crops of flowers and vegetables require pollination and bees make this all happen. There is decimation and rapid decline of bees that are our most important pollinators. Well-known threats on bee populations include habitat destruction, climate change, drought and ravages of disease by colony collapse disorder (CCD) and by viruses and mites. More importantly, is the use of pesticides, particularly insecticides in the class of neonicotinoids, which affect the nervous systems of bees and other pollinating insects. There is one puzzle piece missing; it is man. This image could be a nice addition to a science center, nature center, or school classroom. You will find many more visual stories on my website with over 1200 nature inspired images and please read my blog to learn about nature and my inspirations from it.
