Clark's Nutcracker
The Clark's Nutcracker is a very cool bird to experience. They are also an important part of the ecosystem in Coniferous forests of the Rocky Mountains and the Cascades. This bird is unique in that a single individual can store as many as 100,000 seeds in a single year, many of these seeds that they stash for food reserves end up in a favorable place to germinate and form new trees. without the Clarks Nutcracker forest cycles could very well suffer. for these reasons it is considered a specialist and a keystone species.
Thanks for looking, have a nice day!
