The Amazing World of the Very Small and Forgotten
In our endless craziness of life, bustling about trying to pay bills, working long hours, shuffling family commitments around and trying to stay in touch with friends and loved ones. A minute world continues on long forgotten amongst humans and very rarely thought about until these small little critters encroach on our comfort space. Then low and belhold we attack with full force, lets bring out the poison, kill, destroy, with no thought of environmental consquences. Then the balance of nature is shifted and ulitmately in the end the minute world wins.
What I am talking about is the amazing world of insects, who eat the nasty bugs, who colour our world in displays of beautiful colourful wings, who pollenate our flowers and give us honey, with only asking a small favour in return…...please protect our environment.
When you find a brief moment in your time during the day, I dare you to go outside to your backyard and look at this amazing world of beautiful, colourful insects. All have a vital role to keep the ecoligical balance of the environment in check. Their message I heard was, ‘Hey I am over here!”
Please look after my home and I will look after you.
Here is my invitation to come check out my Insects, at Bellavista2, promise they won’t bite:=}

wonderful words, and i totally agree with you, we are all to busy sometimes to stop and see the beauty in theis world, but i think doing photography it opens are eyes up and we see more and notice more that is sround us. I took a dragon fly a few weeks ago will load it up for you to look at, wonder if there is a dragonfly group?As to protecting there homes i seem to have 4 very fliffy bees that have decided to use my compost bin for a home, so i amleaving my compost untouched for this year. Lol
Bellavista2 replied

Lastly but not least Thankyou so much much for your wonderful Support Karen very greatly apprecaited:=}

As a gardener, I appreciate the insect world more and more each day, and no longer divide them into ‘good’ or ‘bad’. They all have their niche. When an insect sits on my hand, with trust, it is a wonderful feeling. Thanks for this entry.
Bellavista2 replied
It certainly is! I agree with you totally with everything you said. I am just amazed now that my husband and I have embarked on a huge gardening project, at the diversity of insects that have decided to inhabit our bit of greenery and trying to do everything organically in the process has been an interesting learning curve. However, I understand everything in Nature is such a delicate balance, we can’t take away one species with upsetting the balance:=}
Lastly but certainly not least…..Your very welcome Enivea:=}
