🇺🇸) June Roulette Activity

‎ . ︵︵ ׁ ◌ ⊹ ׁ 🌱 take flight ︵ 🦆 ׁ 🪿 ׁ ⊹ . ‎ ‎ The month of June honours many crucial and important days, some of which celebrate different bird species!

Birds are not only important pollinators, spreading seeds and pollen to help plants grow, they also work as pest control since they eat up to 500 million tons of insects a year. They contribute to a healthier eco-system, the droppings of seabirds even help our coral reefs survive! This month's roulette aims to honour the birds that keep our world spinning.
