A display of all the superb creatures found at Escuela Bella Vista in Maracaibo Venezuela, (and previously where I taught at the American international school of Maputo Mozambique). At least once a week a child brings me some arthropod or other creature to identify, play with or admire. This blog seeks to honor those avid inquirers. Unlike the Lorax who spoke for the trees, Ispeakforthefleas! Enjoy.

Hummer stunner.
I am blown away by the intelligence and friendliness of the hummingbirds at school. Not having any South American experience, I am tentatively identifying this little beauty as a Buffy Hummingbird (Leucippus fallax). Just LOVE, the diversity of our campus. Thanks to Wikipedia for the distribution map.
