Sometimes, it’s the tiniest creatures that make the biggest difference. We often think power comes from size or strength, but in nature, that's not always true. One of the smallest insects on Earth—one we usually ignore or even fear—is actually keeping our entire world alive. I’m talking about bees, the ones who uphold our ecosystem.
Spring is in the air! The birds are chirping, the flowers are blooming, the bees are buzzing. The Hummingbirds are coming back! Every spring, we see these tiny birds zooming around our yards, collecting nectar and pollinating the flowers. But why are Hummingbirds important to our ecosystem? In this blog, we will talk about Hummingbirds and how they uphold the ecosystem.
The Great Indian Hornbill is such an important creature in the ecosystem. It can live for up to 70 years, and everything it does in its life has a purpose.
Great Indian Hornbills have a strong sense of family. Once they choose a partner, they'll stay with that partner for the rest of their lives. Wherever one hornbill goes, the other follows. They always stay together, and if you see one, you're sure to see its mate not far away.
They also rely on each other. Once the female finds a spot to lay her eggs, she goes inside a tree, and the male seals up the nest with mud, leaving only a small hole. This helps hide the nest from predators. Every day, the male brings 200 to 300 fruits to the nest and feeds them to his mate. This is why if one hornbill dies, an entire family is at risk.
