Seed Bearer ~Not all pollinators are bees. The grace and glinting beauty of the great black wasp captivated me since I first saw one as a child. I loved to watch them, hoping for the moments when their wings shown iridescent blue. These large wasps are pollinators, feeding on nectar, and rarely stinging. With our current culture’s focus on bees it’s good to remember that all creatures have an intrinsic value beyond what is normally considered beneficial to us.
Seed Bearer reminds us that our wilderness, our wildness, and our lives are connected. Anyone can bear a seed, and anyone can be a seed.
