熊蜂在授粉, 伍斯特, 英格兰 (© SimonEastwood87/Shutterstock)蜜蜂有五只眼睛——两只大的，以及三只位于头部中央的小眼睛。

一声轻柔的嗡嗡声，伴随着细微的花粉飞扬，足以塑造我们食物的未来。

每年5月20日是“世界蜜蜂日”，这一节日旨在礼赞像图中这只大黄蜂一样的授粉昆虫，致敬它们那看似悄无声息却至关重要的辛勤工作。

与许多昆虫不同，大黄蜂采用一种独特的“振动授粉”方式——通过振动飞行肌，将花粉从花朵中抖落出来；对于番茄、辣椒和蓝莓等农作物而言，这种授粉方式至关重要。

蜜蜂及其他授粉昆虫为全球超过75%的主要粮食作物做出了贡献，不仅提高了产量，也改善了品质。

鉴于其重要性，联合国于2018年设立了“世界蜜蜂日”，旨在唤起人们对其所发挥作用的关注，并警示它们正面临着从栖息地丧失到气候变化等日益严峻的威胁。

全球拥有超过两万种蜜蜂——其中绝大多数为野生种类——因此，保护授粉昆虫也意味着守护整个生态系统。

每一次造访花朵——正如眼前这一幕——都在为生物多样性提供支持，并以每一次振翅的微小力量，助力维持粮食系统的韧性。

World Bee DayBees have five eyes—two large ones and three small ones in the middle of their head.A soft buzz and a dusting of pollen can shape the future of our food. World Bee Day, observed each year on May 20, celebrates pollinators like the bumble bee pictured here during its quiet yet essential work. Unlike many insects, bumble bees use 'buzz pollination,' vibrating their flight muscles to shake pollen from flowers—a method vital for crops such as tomatoes, peppers, and blueberries.Bees and other pollinators contribute to more than 75% of the world's major food crops, improving both yield and quality. Recognizing their importance, the United Nations designated World Bee Day in 2018 to draw attention to their role and the growing threats they face, from habitat loss to climate change.With over 20,000 bee species worldwide—most of them wild—protecting pollinators also means safeguarding entire ecosystems. Each flower visit, like this one, supports biodiversity and helps keep food systems resilient, one vibration at a time.点击下方阅读原文，获得更多精彩内容扫码关注每日更新扫码进入微信小程序，每天0点准时更新
