style='font-size:12.0pt'>Mark Moffett, a biologist and a photographer, has made
a career out of studying insects around the world – and documenting them.
So a few years ago, when he set out looking for animals and insects that carry
pollen from one plant to the next, he traveled to Central Asia, Eastern Africa
and <st1:place w:st="on">Northern Minnesota</st1:place>.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p style='margin:0pt;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>The results are surprising images in National
Geographic Magazine of unexpected pollinators caught in the act: an ornate day
gecko lapping nectar from a tree blossom, a ring-tailed lemur gnawing on a
cactus or a mosquito dipping into an orchid.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p style='margin:0pt;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>In this conversation with host Dick Gordon, Moffett
explains how he found his photography subjects, how many hours he waited, and
how many bug bites he got in the process.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style='font-size:12.0pt'>"For most of journalism, we’re expected to
dig deeper, to show the key moments in the life of a person," Moffett
says. "It’s really no different for animal behavior. If you can find
these moments, then you really have something to show."<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
