Museum & Pollinator Habitats
Mission
The mission of this organization is to open a Pollinator Plus Museum in order to:
- 1. Educate the public about everything pollinators including what they are, why they are crucial to our existence, and what the extreme threats are that they face.
- 2. Educate the public about invasive plants including why they are such a devastating ecological threat, and what can be done to better control them.
- 3. Generate revenue to help control invasive plants throughout southwest Ohio
- 4. Generate revenue to create well maintained pollinator habitats in business/commercial districts in our area.
And yes, we will also be fully dedicated to help other cities across the US open Pollinator Plus Museums just like this one to help educate and rais awareness about everything pollinators, while further escalating the war against invasive plants.
Eastern Box Turtles are threatened by loss of habitat, road traffic, use of chemicals, and collection for use as pets. They are resilient, but no where near as abundant as they were a mere fifty years ago when I was a young child growing up next to Winton Woods.
Monarch Butterflies are so much more than just an amazing story of long distance migration. They are the canaries in the mine in many ways, and draw attention to the problems that are threatening all pollinators and other wildlife.
This majestic Red-tailed Hawk was perched on the top of a utility pole in a field directly across the street from a local high school. Behind it was a McDonalds, a Taco Bell, and a Harley Davidson shop. I captured additional photos of this bird with one of each of the signs in each image.
