Are you ready? It’s already March! 😊 Here is when the Monarchs first arrived to your state last year. When will it be this year? Well, a lot of factors will determine that like weather conditions.
So SAVE the Native Bees! How do we do that? Stop using pesticides and provide them with native plants and lots of “Wild” ground space because around 70% of native bees nest in the ground. 🐝
While the Monarchs are still vacationing in Mexico, the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds have started their Northern Migration! The week before leaving, they DOUBLE their body weight by gorging on bugs and spiders...WHO IS EXCITED ?
Today would have been Steve Irwin’s 63rd birthday. When he tragically passed away it was devastating to those that cared about conservation because there was no one better at promoting it. He was only 44 when he died. 😢
You can relax more and enjoy the flowers, bees, butterflies, and birds because native plants require a lot less work than taking care of a “perfect” green turf grass lawn.
For example, this tree frog easily absorbs chemicals right through their skin. So if you say you like them and then spray pesticides in your yard, you’re killing them. So let’s start making better choices in favor of our wildlife friends.
