A bee-themed Valentine’s Day

In response to a tweet from our very own Dean of Research this morning…

Here’s my bee/research-themed valentine’s message…

 

Roses are red

Violets are blue

They attract bees

The colour’s a clue

 

The bees transfer pollen,

Flies do this too,

Makes strawberries and chocolate

So, insects, thank you

 

But insects are threatened

By what humans do

So on V-day this year

It’s over to you…

 

Grow native flowers

(They need quite a few)

To feed their babies

And to do what they do

 

Ditch the bug spray

Protect habitats too

Because we need insects

And insects need you

 

🐝
