Maybe it's time for Monsanto, Dupont & John Deere to start working on a documentary film that shows uncensored footage of what's really happening with pollinators and other wildlife in the GMO crop monocultures of the USA. Maybe it's time they show the public that industrialized ag landscapes like these in the upper Midwest: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/trud.jpg are actually teaming with nectar feeding insects and pollinators: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/true.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/syr3.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/dybeea.jpg The flowering weeds surrounding GMO crops set lots of seed: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/pods.jpg which is further evidence that native pollinators are abundant. Dragonflies are abundant as well: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/drag.jpg In fact, just keeping your car windshield clean of flying insects in the GMO crop growing regions is a challenege: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/windshield.jpg Other wildlife that can be found around GMO crops include Frogs: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/frogb.jpg In the photo above frogs were so abundant I estimated the density to be one frog per two square yards of GMO crop margin. There are Snakes as well: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/snake.jpg Racoons: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/racoon.jpg Birds: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/birds.jpg And much more. Sometimes the margins of GMO crops are State designated game refuge habitats: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/game.jpg Paul Cherubini El Dorado, Calif. ****************************************************** * Full guidelines for BEE-L posting are at: * * http://www.honeybeeworld.com/bee-l/guidelines.htm * ******************************************************
