You’ve seen bees hop from flower to flower in summer, but have you ever wondered where they find a drink? Natural puddles dry up fast, and deep birdbaths can be deadly for small pollinators. A simple DIY “bee bar” gives them a safe landing pad—and it takes only minutes to set up.
Why It Matters
Bees keep gardens and food crops alive. Pollination relies on healthy, hydrated bees.
Shallow water sources are vanishing. Without them, bees waste energy searching—or drown in deep containers. One small dish can draw butterflies and ladybugs too.
