Azteca and other ant species also attack coffee berry borers, which burrow into coffee fruit and cause fruit rot.

This session, hosted by chairman of Bradley University’s Department of Interactive Media Jim Ferolo, provided an examination of mobile interactions that are tied to physical location and advertising modalities. With help from three of his students, Ferolo also presented data from a recent study completed by members of his capstone theory class.

This smooth Ray of Rye Pier, (Victoria, Australia) was incredibly interactive and "played" with me for over 30 minutes. The photo itself was taken while free diving.

I have two pictures depicting trophic interaction. This picture represents an example of one heterotroph preying upon another. In this case, this was a nest of snapping turtle eggs that has been destroyed by a small mammal (in all likelihood a raccoon.) The picture titled Trophic Interaction 2 is a closeup shot of the nest and you can see ants and other insects working on breaking down and decomposing the eggs and whatever tissue has been left behind. In these two pictures of the same scene we see predation and decomposition at work.
I believe that the most influential species in my location are white oak trees. Of the wooded portions of my location, white oaks are the dominant species. The white oak provides a substantial canopy. This canopy provides habitat for some birds and mammals. Additionally, mast from the acorns dropped by the white oak provides forage for a number of different species including squirrels and deer. Lastly, two of the water bodies on my location are surrounded entirely by the white oak. They provide substantial cover for these ponds. This cover limits the penetration of sunlight into these ponds creating a certain set of circumstances designed to support a particular niche.
If one were to remove the white oak, you would displace the species whose niche depends in part upon them for food, shelter, or cover (such as those reliant on the shade it provides to the ponds). The landscape would change substantially from a forested landscape to an open landscape. Because of the dramatic change in landscape different species would be able to more effectively compete within that niche than the species that had thrived with the presence of the white oak.
If the white oak were replaced by an invasive species the landscape would change more dramatically that if they were simply removed. Presumably, if the white oak were removed different species occupying that new niche would become established. The nature of an invasive species is that they are particularly keen competitors that are able to flourish without limitation. In that regard, I would expect that the species moved out as their niche changed would not be replaced.
Squirrel: The squirrel is an herbivore, Hairston et al found that herbivores are typically not limited by food supply, but are generally limited by predation.
Oak: The oak is limited by its competition for space. Hairston et al found that as terrestrial plant species compete, the competition ultimately expresses itself as competition for space.
Red-winged blackbird: The red winged blackbird are omnivores and feed on seeds, grains, insects, and small mammals. Within this location, there are numerous other species that compete for some of these same food sources. In that regard, they are limited by their competition for resources through interspecific competition.

My heart hurts every time I see Michelle. Her eyes is filled with tenderness and sadness.
She's a little older now, and I feel she's lost a lot of her spirit and innocence. I don't think she has enough human interaction and affection at the urban farm she's kept at. Michelle's also pregnant now; but sadly, her partner died a while ago, got hit by vehicle. She's also flea infested running around the farm in a warm humid Houston weather. I think I got a couple flea bites while visiting with her today. I remember once the carefree happy-go-lucky Michelle who gets so excited and anxious greeting every human visitor. I can't blame her for slow losing a little faith in human beings in general.
When I retire, I aspire to open an animal safe haven for all the neglected and abandoned dogs. I want it to be a place where dogs can feel loved and safe, and dog lovers can come and visit just to show affection to these wonderful creatures. I want to work harder so I can have a larger pension to support man's best friends.
I will do my best to visit Michelle as much as possible. I'm just worried now what would happen when she gives birth to a litter of puppies...
