National Pollinator Week, June 16-22, 2025, brings attention to the urgent issue of declining pollinator populations. Created by pollinator.org, this worldwide celebration is also a call to action to save bees, birds, butterflies, bats and beetles. The Woodlands Township is celebrating National Pollinator Week by hosting a weeklong BioBlitz. Identify as many species as possible during National Pollinator Week. This effort provides an informal, fun opportunity for the public to learn together and share their enthusiasm for nature. And the information collected contributes to a genuine scientific survey. Anyone can participate regardless of age or knowledge level.
