National Pollinator Week is an annual event hosted by the Pollinator Partnership, a nonprofit organization in San Francisco, CA working to protect the health of pollinators essential to the North American landscape and agriculture. One way they do this is through supporting legislation promoting conservation practices, such as the Highways Bettering the Economy and Environment Act (Highway BEE Act) to be introduced to the U.S. House of Representatives next week on June 23. This act encourages reduced mowing and native plantings that provide habitat for pollinators, nesting birds and other wildlife on 17 million acres of highway rights-of-way. Read the complete text of this act here. The Pollinator Partnership is collecting signatures for their group letter.

Beautiful work. How much is realistic detail orientated and how much to you just go with artistic license? I suppose it would be two different types of work. Good stuff you are doing here.
