This photo shows earthworms in the soil. Earthworms live underground and are important to keep the soil healthy. As they move through the soil, they create small tunnels that allow air and water to reach plant roots. Earthworms eat dead leaves and plant material in the soil and turn it into nutrients that help plants grow better. We can help protect soil life by composting food waste, and taking care of gardens and natural spaces.

This photo shows dandelion flowers. Some of the flowers are open, while others are still closed. Dandelions open their bright yellow flowers when there is sunlight and close them when it is darker or cooler. This helps protect the flower and its pollen. Dandelion flowers are important for insects like bees and butterflies. They provide nectar and pollen, which insects use for food. This helps the insects survive and also helps plants grow because insects carry pollen from flower to flower. Dandelions are not just weeds, they are very helpful for nature. They support pollinators and help keep ecosystems.

This photo shows insects and snails living inside a rubble wall. The small gaps between the rocks create tiny homes where these animals can hide, rest, and stay safe. Rubble walls are very important for nature because they provide shelter for many small creatures like snails, spiders, beetles, and insects. These animals help the environment by breaking down dead plants, improving the soil, and being food for other animals like birds. In many places, old rubble walls are removed or replaced with smooth concrete walls. When this happens, many small animals lose their homes. We can help protect these creatures by taking care of rubble walls and natural spaces. Even small places like stone walls can be full of life.
