Appearances Can Be Deceiving

Hoverflies are often mistaken for bees due to their similar striped abdomens, but don't worry, these flies cannot sting as bees do. If you see what you think is a bee hovering over a flower then darting quickly to another, it is most likely a fly. Look closely at the eyes or antennae. Fly eyes take up most of the head, while bee eyes are placed on the side of the head. Additionally, fly antennae are short and stubby, while bees have long antennae. This Syrphid fly (Sphaerophoria) is sipping nectar from an Arrowleaf Balsamroot bloom.

"Nature is to be found in her entirety nowhere more than in her smallest creatures." — Pliny the Elder

Create a Holy Spirit Rain Cloud

Mayo 24, 2026, por Paula Wart
Just like rain falls and helps plants grow, God’s Spirit helps us grow like Jesus. When we feel scared, tired or alone, God is with us. Make a rain cloud to remind you of the Holy Spirit's rain in your life.

    A Heart That Cares

    Abril 10, 2026, por Paula Wart
    The Bible tells the story of Little Maid, a young girl who was taken from her home and enslaved by Naaman and his wife. When she had the chance to speak up so Naaman could be healed by God via Elisha, she did, because she had a caring heart.

The original printed Gleaner was first published in 1906, and has since expanded to a full magazine with a monthly circulation of more than 40,000. Through its extended online and social media presence, the Gleaner also provides valuable content and connections for interested individuals around the world.
