Natural History Museum’s Post

As we continue to transition into a new season, we’re celebrating a blooming beautiful summer at the Museum! 🐝🌸 This season brought an impressive number of visitors - both people and winged guests! Throughout the summer, we hosted pollinator counts, recording the diverse insects that filled our gardens over the last few months. Our visitors turned community scientists recorded an impressive 441 pollinators, including butterflies, wasps and bees – and even some mint moths! These species all play a vital role in keeping our ecosystem thriving. These efforts not only helped us better understand our local biodiversity but also connected our visitors with the wonders of the natural world. 🦋
