Cowbirds evolved to lay their eggs in other birds' nests while following buffalo herds.
As buffalo stirred up insects, the cowbirds took advantage and let other birds raise their young.

Did you know some bats call trees their home?
🌳🦇 These tree-dwelling bats, like the Red Bat, roost in the branches or tree cavities, where they stay safe from predators.
They help keep insect populations in check, making them essential to healthy ecosystems!

These tiny, colorful #birds are stunning but face threats like habitat loss, #ClimateChange, and food scarcity.
Let's protect their homes and ensure their survival!

While #Hummingbirds are thought of as only drinking nectar, a hummingbird may obtain half or even up to 80% of the energy it requires by eating insects, which live on native plants.
You can help restore your #environment by planting native plants like wild columbine.

Did you know? The Ruby-throated #Hummingbird is the only hummingbird species found in the northeastern U.S.!
These tiny marvels travel hundreds of miles each year, but their populations are at risk due to habitat loss and climate change.
Plant native plants they love. #Nature #Birds #Wildlife

Hummingbirds in the Southwest USA are a true desert treasure, but their populations are on the decline. Decreasing food sources are taking a toll.
We need to ensure they have a safe, thriving environment.

Bird migration season is almost upon us … are you ready?
Did you know that #migration season has the most window collisions?
Sadly most birds that strike a window will die, but the solution is simple…Acopian Bird Savers.

Do you fear #snakes?
Here is something to help ease your #anxiety.
Snakes are shy creatures who generally avoid humans as much as possible in the #wild.
Snakes do not chase, they generally are ambush predators and wait for prey to come to them.
Be kind they fear you more!

Humans are not the only species that can create #Art.
Lolo the donkey made quite the splash in the art world, his paintings being sold under a human pseudonym.
And it worked! Lolo’s paintings made impressive sums of money and survive in collections today.

The Hazel Dormouse
A nocturnal creature who spends most of its waking hours among the branches of trees looking for food. It will make long detours rather than come down to the ground and expose itself to danger.
Hazel is the principal food & habitat source.

The rapid loss of species we are seeing today is estimated by experts to be between 1,000 and 10,000 times higher than the natural #extinction rate.
The biggest threat to our planet's species is human greed.
