Totengräber graben tote Kleinsäuger und Vögel als Nahrung für ihre Nachkommen ein. Dabei wird auch das Fell oder die Federn entfernt. So bleibt nur ein Fleischball übrig, den sie als Nahrung für ihren Nachwuchs vorbereiten. Dieser Fleischball wird von den Käfern konserviert, indem sie ein antimikrobielles Sekret darauf abgeben. So wird die Verwesung verhindert.
Dieser Konservierungstrick bei der Brutpflege ist wohl einzigartig!
Beide Elternteile betreiben Brutpflege und füttern die geschlüpften Larven, bis diese selbständig Nahrung aufnehmen können.
Die Milben leben in Symbiose mit den Totengräbern. Sie werden vom Käfer zu Aas gebracht. Dort fressen sie bereits am Kadaver abgelegte Fliegeneier. So bleibt mehr für die Larven des Käfers übrig.

Achtung ! Konzentration - und rein mit der dicken Hummel in die kleine Blüte ! ;)
Die Hummel hat 0,7 cm² Flügelfläche und wiegt 1,2 Gramm. Nach den Gesetzen der Aerodynamik ist es unmöglich, bei diesem Verhältnis zu fliegen.
Die Hummel weiß das nicht und fliegt einfach.

.... denn die Flügel von Insekten schlagen durch die Luft! Dadurch erzeugen sie ihren Auftrieb
Da sich der Insektenflügel jedoch nach unten bewegt (und zwar an der Spitze schneller als am Rumpf) entsteht an der Spitze des Flügels ein Unterdruck. Dieser Unterdruck zieht den Wirbel nun am Flügel entlang, so daß er die ganze Länge des Flügels entlang streift und nicht wie beim starren Flügel eines Flugzeuges sofort nach hinten wegzieht.
Dieser Wirbel verschafft dem Flügel des Insekts zusätzlichen —bisher nicht berücksichtigten— Auftrieb. Das ist der Trick der Hummel beim fliegen…

Gwinnett County (Lawrenceville), Georgia, USA.
15 April 2023.
â–¶ The playing field was decorated with the number '42' on Jackie Robinson Day, in honor of the eponymous baseball Hall of Famer second baseman and civil rights icon, who wore the number during his storied career (1945-1956), and who, on 15 April 1947, became the first African-American to play for a Major League baseball team.
***************
â–¶ "Jackie Robinson Day is a traditional event which occurs annually on April 15 in Major League Baseball (MLB), commemorating and honoring the day (April 15, 1947) on which all-star second baseman Jackie Robinson (1919-1972) made his major league debut. Celebrated at MLB ballparks, on that one day, all players, coaches, and managers on both teams, and the umpires, wear Robinson's uniform number, 42.
☞ Initiated for the first time on April 15, 2004, the festivity is a result of Robinson's memorable career, best known for becoming the first African-American major league baseball player, of the modern era, in 1947. His debut with the Brooklyn Dodgers (today's Los Angeles Dodgers) ended approximately 80 years of baseball segregation. Robinson was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1962."

â–¶ "Jackie Robinson's character, his use of nonviolence, and his talent challenged the traditional basis of segregation that had then marked many other aspects of American life. He influenced the culture of and contributed significantly to the civil rights movement.
☞ Robinson also was the first black television analyst in MLB and the first black vice president of a major American corporation, Chock full o'Nuts. In the 1960s, he helped establish the Freedom National Bank, an African-American-owned financial institution based in Harlem, New York.
☞ After his death in 1972, Robinson was posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal and Presidential Medal of Freedom in recognition of his achievements on and off the field."

â–¶ "The Gwinnett Stripers are a Minor League Baseball team of the International League (IL) and the Triple-A affiliate of the Atlanta Braves. The team was established in 2009 after the International League's Richmond Braves relocated from Richmond, Virginia. They play their home games at Coolray Field in unincorporated Gwinnett County, Georgia (with a Lawrenceville address) in suburban Atlanta, Georgia. They are named for striped bass in reference to the popularity of fishing in the region."

☞ The Stripers lost the game, 5-1, to the Memphis Redbirds.
