Shelter for Little Spotted Kiwi

This is my plan and a model of a shelter I designed for a little spotted kiwi.
My modifications were made because I only had cardboard not wood.  I also put a spider in there because I learnt that kiwi eat spiders.

Kiwi are an endangered species.  It is my responsibility to care for the environment so that kiwi have a healthy country to live in.

Bees

Bees

The scientific name for a bees is apis. A bee is an insect as well as an invertebrate. There are lots of  different types of bees.

Habitat
When bees are wild they live in a wild hive. If they are not wild they live in a hive on a farm. When bees are wild the make their own colony. People make hives for the bees that are not wild.

Description
A bees tongue is called a proboscis. It is used to suck nectar from flowers. On their body bees have four wings and six legs to help them move. They have antennae on their head and black and yellow stripes on their body to warn predators that they are poisonous.

Dynamics
Bees only make 1/12 of teaspoon in their life. bees can dance, they use their dancing for communication they can only fly up to five miles from the wild hive. Bees are only able to see blue. Bees can't fly in the rain.

Honey bees are quite close to extinction. To make the earth a better place for bees, we can stop wasting honey and stop annoying them so they don't sting us and die.          

I am responsible.
