The main job of a flowers is to attract pollinators (mainly insects, Birds) and also reproduction of the plant. Their beautiful colors, shapes and delicious scents have one purpose only to attract pollinators.
So, who are these very important creatures. Mostly we are talking about insects, but there are some birds, bats and other small mammals, even a lizard some time humans. But I have to tell you that vast majority of pollinators are flying insects. When we talk about pollinators the ones that come to mind are honey bees and butterflies, but there are also many other insects that perform this job for flowering plants, as well. There are flies, wasps, beetles and even some other insects that most people know nothing about, such as hemiptera and thrips.
