A simple and effective ground-based tool for sampling tree flowers at height for subsequent nectar extraction

© 2020 British Ecological Society. Sampling nectar from forest canopies is logistically challenging to sample as it requires physical access to the canopy to a height greater than that can be achieved by hand. The most common solutions comprise the use of cherry pickers, cranes or tree climbers. The...
