Soon after, following one another from start to end, the dancers came to repeat the steps of the dance slowly, carefully, silently across the strip. By doing so, they stamped and prepared the soil for pollinators to dig their winter burrows in: insects such as the ‘Sultzer purseweb spider’, or the ‘solitary bee’ who are more than effective (as opposed to the common bee) in pollinating the land.</li> | ||
