We were absolutely amazed by the incredible photos sent in for our July/August ‘Animal Workers’ photo competition! From bees buzzing busily among flowers to birds hard at work collecting food and building nests, your entries captured the spirit of nature's tireless creatures beautifully. A huge thank you to everyone who took part and shared your fantastic snapshots of hardworking animals in action!

Birds control pests. A recent study has shown that birds eat 400-500 million tons of insects a year! They are really hard worker.

Honeybees work hard to produce yummy honey!
They also produce royal jelly, pollen, beeswax, propolis and honey bee venom. We simply would not be able to survive without them. Bees pollinate our wild trees and flowers which then support other insects, which then support birds, bats and mammals.

Ladybird
Ladybirds work hard, helping gardeners by eating aphids and other plant-eating bugs. They protect the plants and help them grow.
