Think hummingbirds are the only speed demons visiting your flowers? Meet the actual fastest pollinators in North America - sphinx moths with wings that beat 85 times per second and carpenter bees that visit 5,000 flowers in a single day. In this episode, we explore the incredible physics-defying abilities of these turbocharged pollinators, from hover-flying moths with tongues longer than their bodies to vibrating bees that make your tomatoes possible. Discover why speed matters in pollination, learn which flowers attract these nighttime workers, and find out how you can support the pollinators moving too fast for most people to even notice. Your evening garden will never look the same again.
