Wildlife Jewels World Migratory Bird Day!

On this World Migratory Bird Day, we are excited to introduce you to Yellow Gasper the Western Meadowlark and Carnelian the Ant!

This year's theme for World Migratory Bird Day emphasizes the significance of preserving insects and their role in supporting migratory birds.

Yellow Gasper is a charming Western Meadowlark we encountered at the Ramona grasslands in March, he primarily feeds on insects, including beetles, grasshoppers, crickets, and ants!

Meanwhile, Carnelian the Ant is our original depiction of an extraordinary Asian weaver ant, showcasing its remarkable ability to carry a stick weighing 100 times its body weigh
