[R] producing a graph with glm poisson distributed respons count data and categorical independant variables

[babs]

Hello,

I am working on my thesis and can't really figure out how to produce a
reasonable graph from the output from my glm., 
I could just give the R-output in my results and then discuss them, but it
would be more interesting if I could visualise what is going on.
My research is how bees react to different fieldmargins, for this I have 4
different types of field margin (A,B,C & D) and two different experiments,
one where the field margins are adjecent and one where they are seperated.
I wanted to know if the bees react differently on the different types of
field margin and whether there were differences between the two
experiments... I also used an offset function to correct for the different
number of field margins of the same type were the counts have been going on.
I counted the counts of the same fied margins together and then put in the
offset function.

So i used the model that is underneath: mengsel A, B, C & D=type of field
margin and proefopzet 1 and 2= experiment p1 and p2
I already checked if this saturated model is better then that without an
interaction effect:
so I think i have a good model for my data

Call:
glm(formula = count ~ mengsel * proefopzet, family = poisson, 
    data = a.data, offset = log(opp))

Now...how can i visualise this? I don't seem to find how i could do this...

The data on which this is computed is the following:
> a.data
  count proefopzet mengsel opp
1  1033        p1               B            3
2    77           p1               C             2
3   452         p1               A             3
4    30          p1               D             2
5   157         p2               B             1
6     4            p2              C             2
7   119         p2               A             2
8   123         p2               D             1

Thanks,

Babs
