ants are 0,7 millimeters long. Therefore they are hard to see. The biggest ants
are almost 1 inch (3 centimeters) long.
Ant’s body seems to have a very thin waist. The narrow waist lets the ant
bend when it goes around turns in underground tunnels. Male ants and young
queen ants have wings. The workers of many species of ants have a stinger for
fighting against enemies.
An ant has a mouth with three parts. The most important part is jaws. The
jaws can be used for carrying things, collecting food, building nests, fighting
and cutting. Ants use their lower jaws for chewing and their tongues for
sucking up liquids.

Butterflies are a type of insect with large and often colorful wings. They start out
as eggs. They lay their eggs on leaves. The eggs hatch into caterpillars with tubular
body. The caterpillar eats leaves, buds, or flowers of plants.
When a caterpillar is full sized, it goes into another stage called chrysalis.
Caterpillars attach themselves to something solid before becoming a chrysalis. The
caterpillar inside the chrysalis changes into a butterfly. Some butterflies make the
change in one week. Some others take years to change.
When the change is complete, the adult butterfly splits the chrysalis. The insect
 unfolds its wings and pumps blood and air into them. It spreads out the wings until
they become dry and harder. The beautiful butterfly then flies to get nectar from
flowers. Most butterflies live only for one or two weeks.

Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants, and are known for their
role in pollination and for producing honey and beeswax. There are nearly 20,000
known species of bees in nine recognized families though many are indescribable and
the actual number is probably higher. They are found on every continent except
Antarctica, in every habitat on the planet that contains insect-pollinated flowering
plants.
Bees have a long proboscis (a complex "tongue") that enables them to obtain the
nectar from flowers. They have antennae almost universally made up of 13 segments
in males and 12 in females, as is typical for the super family. Bees all have two pairs
of wings, the hind pair being the smaller of the two; in a very few species, one sex or
caste has relatively short wings that make flight difficult or impossible, but none are
wingless.
The smallest bee is Trigona minima, a sting less bee whose workers are about 2.1 mm
(5/64") long. The largest bee in the world is Megachile Pluto, a leaf cutter bee whose
females can attain a length of 39 mm (1.5"). Members of the family Halictidae, or
sweat bees, are the most common type of bee in the Northern Hemisphere, though
they are small and often mistaken for wasps or flies.

TAWNY OWL
The tawny owl is nocturnal, so you are more likely to hear its hooting
call than to actually see the bird. It lives mainly in woodland and farmland, but
can also be found in parks and cities.
The tawny owl hunts at night. Its excellent hearing means it can locate
prey in complete darkness. Using sound, the owl slowly turns its head to detect
the position of the prey before swooping down and catching it with sharp
talons. The owl uses its sharp beak to tear up the food.
Owls eat lots of different food, depending on where they live. Those
living in woodland areas tend to eat small rodents, worms and beetles. Nearer
towns and cities, owls will eat small birds and have been known to take fish
from garden ponds.
The female tawny owl lays two to five eggs. She sits on the eggs one at
a time, which means that they hatch at intervals. Once they have hatched, the
female sits on the chicks whilst the male brings food.

KOOKABURRA
The Kookaburra is the word’s largest kingfisher and is found only in
Australia. It is often called the laughing kookaburra because of its unusual
call.
Kookaburras hunt during the day. They look for food from their perch
high in the branches of trees. Their diet includes insects, crabs and small
reptiles, such as snakes. From its position in the trees, the kookaburra waits for
suitable prey to pass beneath before swooping down to grasp it in its sharp bill.
Kookaburras make nests in holes, mostly in trees and sometimes in the
holes of walls or buildings. The female lays two or three eggs. When the
young chicks hatch, they rely on their parents to bring them food.

PEACOCK
The peacock is the male bird of the peafowl and is best known for its
long, flowing and colorful tail feathers. The peacock displays its tail feathers
by spreading them like a magnificent fan. The feathers are decorated with
beautiful patterns that look like eyes.
Peafowls live in small groups in hilly areas. They spend the day on the
ground and roost in trees at night. In the wild, peafowls are threatened by
tigers and leopards, and can act as an early warning system for other animals.
They often become aware of big cats before other animals, and raise the alarm
with a loud hoot.

Transportation is a familiar thing in our ears. Because since a long time people
in the world have used them to get to their destination. Along with advances in
technology, transportation continues to grow and progress. Transportation is an
important prerequisite for economic growth in the developing world. There are three
types of transportation in the world. Those three type are land transportation, sea
transportation and air transportation.
There are many kinds of land transportation, such as of motorcycles, cars,
buses, and trains. Each of these have advantages and shortage. For example, a
motorcycle,with a motorcycle we can be more free to go anywhere with a faster time
because it is not stuck in traffic. But motorcycles can only be used for one or two
people. If we want to land transportation who can for the masses, we can use a car or
bus.
 Next is a sea transportation. Sea transportation that is commonly used is the
ship. Ships become alternative choice for those who must cross the ocean to get to the
destination. Besides that, the boat ticket price is also affordable. But not for a cruise.
If we want to get to a destination that is so far with a short time then air
transport is the answer. With air transportation such as airplanes we can cover long
distances with a faster time than the use of transportation by land or sea.

Ojek
Ojek “motorcycle taxis” began appearing after becak were banned in the early
1990s. Ojek service began as grassroots entrepreneurs saw an opportunity to provide
a transportation options for people who used to use becak from main roads into
housing complexes.
By law all motorcycle passengers should wear helmets, so ojek drivers should have a
spare for you to wear. Ojek tend to congregate at intersections on main roads and near
smaller roads that are not serviced by bus routes. Ladies have a careful balancing act
if wearing a dress and must sit sidewise on the back of the vehicle. Bargain before
you get on - ask a local what the price should be first. Payment is in cash and the
drivers won't have change for larger bills.
Over the last couple of years as the traffic situation,Ojek has become extremely
challenging.A modern, more professional alternative to the individual ojek has
appeared. Companies such as is Go-Jek, Grab Bike and Yellow Bike have developed
an organized Ojek network that allows you to order an Ojek from your phone. They
can be ordered to transport yourself, pick up a meal from a restaurant or deliver goods
and documents. Their computerized system uses transparent pricing which reduces
the uncertainty of the costs involved. Many people are using these services as
transportation time is greatly reduced.

Locomotives are sometimes called engine. Locomotives push or pull railroad cars.
They have powerful motors. The motors turn locomotive wheels that run on railroad
tracks. All trains run on tracks. Freight trains haul goods. Passenger trains carry
people.
. Some locomotives get their power from electricity. The electricity comes from
wire above the track or from a special third rail next to the track. Other locomotives
get their power from diesel fuel, which is similar to the gasoline that most cars use.
The kind of locomotive engines most used today are diesel-electrics. Engines that
burn diesel fuel drive generators that make electricity. Powerful electric motors turn
the wheels of a diesel-electric locomotive.
A freight car is part of a train which carries goods. A freight train can have as
many as 200 cars hooked together. There are special railroad cars for different kinds
of freight.

Daffodil

Daffodils are found in Europe, North America and Western

Asia. Narcissus is the botanical name for all daffodils. They are also
called paperwhites and jonquil. The term daffodil is generally used for single,
trumpet-shaped flowers and paperwhites for tiny white flowers that grow in
clusters.
The plant grows to a height of 10" to 18" in a variety of colors, sizes and
shapes, including white, cream, yellow, orange and bicolor. They are one of the
most vigorous and colorful flowers of spring.
Daffodils may be separated into 13 major divisions based on several
distinctive forms of the flower. It consists of a central whorl of tepals (the
corona) surrounded by a ring of petals. The center part may range from a long,
tubular part to a short, flattened disc.
Daffodil flowers need a well-drained soil and a sunny place. Hillsides and
raised beds are best. Drainage is very important. A slight acidic soil is best. The
plant should not be fertilized much. A little bone meal in the spring is all they
need. The bulb should be planted approximately 6" deep (standard size) and 2"
deep (the miniature ones). The top of the bulb is the pointed end. Daffodils need
lots of water while they are growing. Continue watering for three weeks or so
after blooming time; then stop watering.
Daffodils multiply in two ways: asexual cloning (bulb division) where
exact copies of the flower will be resulted, and sexually (from seed) where new,
different flowers will be resulted.
Daffodils have few insect and disease pests. Bulb rots are perhaps the most
frequent cause of disappointment. Plants that have been attacked may not
emerge or may have weak or blighted leaves. Bulbs usually begin to rot at the
base.
Daffodils are very beautiful flowers. They are used in bouquets or mixed
spring arrangements. Daffodils are suitable for the shrub border, perennial beds
and among ground covers. They are effective as skirting beneath ornamental
deciduous trees. They naturalize easily in grassy areas and in casual patches
within flower and shrub beds. They provide delicious cut flowers for the house,
and most are well suited to growing in pots for living bouquets to enjoy in the
house and on decks and patios.
