		<description><![CDATA[The Question: Sitting beside a small lake in Massachusetts with many lily pads, we kept hearing a popping noise, almost like bubblegum snapping. What makes that sound?

		<description><![CDATA[I have fallen a little behind in responding to questions, but hopefully, I&#8217;ll start catching up in the next few days, but I wanted to share some amazing slow motion, time-lapse and close-up video of pollinators by filmmaker Louis Schwartzberg.

		<description><![CDATA[The Question: On a recent mid-July trip to the Trinity Alps in Northern California we saw many of these 2&#8242;-4&#8242; tall plants, most just starting to show emerging flower heads. I thought they were so common that ID would be a cinch, but no such luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Submitted by: Marianne, [...]]]></description>
