The sunflower is one of only four major crops of global importance native to the United States (blueberry, cranberry, and pecan are the other three). Leaving the stubble and residues of harvested sunflowers on the surface in the late fall and over the winter allow ample time for birds to find the field and clean up a much of the seed.
The Eastern pondhawk (Erythemis simplicicollis), also known as the Common pondhawk, is a dragonfly of the family Libellulidae, native to the eastern two-thirds of the United States. The species is distinguished in that the female is bright green and the adult male is nearly entirely blue.
