nectar

The frenetic speed at which they get nectar out of flowers and backyard feeders may give the impression that the bills act as straws, too.

Flower species are often unable to sprout with the young trees blocking sunlight, which leaves little nectar for essential pollinators.

In two back-to-back papers published in the journal Ecology, the Kobe University team published that B. subcupularis is pollinated by ants and camel crickets, which visit the plants for their pollen and nectar.

Researchers studying the endangered animals had reported occasionally seeing this nectar licking but had never captured it on video.

You can practically taste the sweet nectar of Middle East peace generated by that decision.
