Matchmaker Uncertainties

May 30, 2017 at 1:28 PM by Michelle Rawlins

We are currently working on completing the Matchmaker assignment using the picture cards provided. We are confident in the following match-ups: Milkweed / Butterfly and Columbine / Hummingbird. We have learned that monarchs rely on milkweed and we know that hummingbirds like to feed from tubular flowers.We think the beetle would be paired with the Red Trillium because the Red Trillium smells like rotting meat. We think the butterfly might be attracted to the raspberry flower because of the colour and the large amount of nectar but we are not sure if the butterfly has enough space to land.We think the bee would be attracted to the Goldenrod but it may be attracted to the Raspberry Flower too. Any insight to provide some clarity would be greatly appreciated.
