      Any organisms that help the spread of pollen are considered pollinators. This include insects, birds, other animals like squirels, and even humans. Although insects like bees, butterflies, and moths are some of the most common ones

      The pollinators depends of the flower colour, odour and shapes. Some flowers produce nectar, a sweet substance that attracts small insects as butterflies. Bees are attracted by the colours that they can see (http://www.naturfotograf.com/UV_ANGE_SYL.html). Small birds as hummingbirds can pollinate some really long tubes flowers thanks to their long beaks.In other cases, the air acts as pollinator moving pollen among different plants.
