Overview

Colorful insects like butterflies and bees tend to get most of the attention among pollinators, yet not to be forgotten are bats and hummingbirds. In the American Southwest, hummingbird diversity is especially rich, while the Mexican Long-nose Bat is a diligent nocturnal pollinator. Throughout this vast region's deserts, canyons, and alpine forests are also legions of bees, butterflies, moths, wasps, flies, and beetles. This diverse assortment of animals collectively plays essential ecological roles while supporting the production of staple food crops for humans. Learning about pollinators and the fascinating lives they lead is endlessly enriching. Given the remarkable diversity of species, it's handy to have quick access to a portable reference like this beautifully illustrated guide, which features 140 common and familiar species, as well as a back-panel map showing top pollinator-viewing hotspots and learning sites. Laminated for durability, our lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is the perfect companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and gardeners who wish to learn more about the pollinators they are most likely to encounter at various altitudes in the Southwest. Made in the USA.
