The Australian Gouldian Finch

The Australian Gouldian Finch, also called the Rainbow Finch or Lady Finch, is one of the most beautiful small birds in the world. Native to Australia these beauties are found in the Northern Territories and Kimberly in particular. Their population has declined from hundreds of thousands to just 2,400 today. They are proof positive of the decline in Aussie woodland ecosystems through deforestation and bushfires. Finches live up to 6 years, they stick with their partner for life and seasonally produce 4 – 8 eggs with the young leaving the nest in just 40 days to live their own lives. Beauty, it seems, is no guarantee of survival!

Bee Population

There are over 20,000 species of Bees, but don't let that fool you, the total population has declined by over 87% in last few years thanks to fewer flowers, deforestation, and pesticides. We are destroying their habitats, yet bees are responsible for pollinating crops that make up about a third - 33% - of all the food we eat. And they work hard! Bees fly the equivalent of 3x around the world to produce 1 Kg of honey and they must visit almost 500,000 flowers to produce that Kg of honey! 1 bee alone only produces 5 grams or 1 teaspoon of honey in their lifetime - so it takes the lives of 200 bees to produce 1 Kg of honey! It takes 4,000 bees to weigh 1 Kg. And bees are tidy, they clean and groom each other and the hexagonal honeycomb is the most efficient shape in the world. We may cease to be without our hardworking bees!

Population

The Miami Blue Butterfly is the size of a thumb nail and, being so small makes it especially vulnerable to everything, the weather, hurricanes are a real problem, people and predators. Their wings are a metallic blue color and females are bigger than the males. There are reportedly less than 100 Miami Blues left, thanks in great part to the loss of their habitat and the plants on which their survival depends. We are destroying their home. Miami Blues were thought to be extinct at the end of the 20th century but further populations popped up. Sadly by 2012, just one population remained with 34 butterflies counted as left. The University of Florida is now working to recover this last small group of individuals and lay plans hopefully for a recovery of the species itself.
