I want to give a digital high five to @jbyoder.org - I was recently asked to give a talk on Co-evolution between plants and their pollinators to our local California Native Plant Society chapter meeting- and I found his work on Yucca moths and Yucca. Really fun!

I've been asked to give a talk about native plant and pollinator co-evolution in California. While I have some of my own ideas, I'd love to hear from the group what are your favorite native plant & pollinator pairings. Any anecdotes or special observations to share?

Happy birthday to me! We planted a tree in the morning and finished moving out of our old place this afternoon. Literally moving into a new chapter.

Gathered some native plants for the Biology department's booth at an event this weekend, found a cicada, and my library request came in. A decent afternoon!
