🌳🌲 Happy International Day of Forests! 🌳🌲
Forests have inspired poets and musicians for centuries, and for good reason. They are one of our planet's greatest natural treasures!
Not only do they provide us with fresh air, but they also calm and invigorate our senses!

But the forests are facing some serious threats, which is why the UN declared March 21 as International Day of Forests.
This day is all about raising awareness about the importance of forests and the need to preserve and protect them for future generations.

Hornbills are called Farmers of the forests, as they are fruigivorous (eats fruit mostly). This video shows the intimate bonding between the pair and their care in raising young ones. A must watch video to take lessons on couple goals and parenting. 2+
