Fantastic Flowers and the Creatures that Pollinate Them

Bell House is a volunteer led charity that provides creative learning for people of all ages and backgrounds. Our vision is to offer an opportunity to gather for learning, enjoyment and friendship in a special place.

Bell House

This talk will introduce the fascinating – and not always harmonious – interactions between flowers and their visitors.

Flowers are billboards, advertising to insects and other animals that pollinate them. I will discuss threats to pollinators in our human-dominated world, and some of the things we as individuals can do to support populations in the future.

About Dr Sarah Arnold:
Dr Sarah Arnold is a Senior Lecturer in Insect Behaviour and Ecology at the Natural Resources Institute. Her research interests include the colour vision of flower-visiting insects, and how they learn about flowers, but she also works more widely on managing habitats (in the UK and also East Africa) for beneficial insects. She is particularly fascinated by the pollination of delicious things such as cocoa trees and strawberry plants!
