Check out this bumblebee buzz pollinating this raspberry flower! 🌸🐝Sound on 🎶 First in normal time and then the same clip in slow motion (1/10 of the speed). How cool! 😍🐝 Pollination is when pollen is carried from the male part of a flower to the female part and allows the flower to create a seed. Without pollination, not only would most wildflowers not be able to produce new seedlings but many crop plants would not be able to produce the fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and oils which are a

Bzz Bzz Bzz 🐝 Have you seen the bumblebees buzz pollinating flowers before? Buzz pollination is a unique technique used by certain bee species, including bumblebees, to extract pollen from flowers that are designed to hold onto their pollen more firmly. The reason bumblebees buzz so much during buzz pollination is that the vibration helps dislodge the pollen from the flower's anthers. The frequency and intensity of the buzzing are specifically tuned to the resonance frequency of the flower, whi

Buzz pollination! This bumble bee is pollinating a black berry flower. The first half is the actual speed and then it’s a slow motion version 😄🐝 The buzz is created by the bee vibrating wing muscles without moving the wings.

So we need to look after the buzz pollinators like this one if we want to keep eating things like blueberries & tomatoes and many others! #b
