Your garden is my home. I'm usually brown, but often change colours according to changes in light, temperature and even moods.
I'm born of an egg -- the largest egg in the world. And I am able to run almost immediately after I hatch out of it! I grow up to be the largest bird, but I cannot fly.
I'm noiseless when I walk. I have fine whiskers which I clean with a lot of care. They are extremely useful when I have to pass through small openings -- if my whiskers get through, it means that I can too!
I am an insect feeding on other insects. I trap them in threads of silk that I weave myself. First I bite my prey and inject the poison into its body, after which digestion takes place externally! Only then do I swallow up the resulting nutritive soup! Who am I?
I sleep the whole day, behind curtains. If you disturb me I am sure to fly away! My sense of smell is very sharp, and I can detect my mate from a very long distance of about 11 km.
I am a great eater. Sometimes I eat food more than my own body weight in a day! I like to store food for the harsh season. My food is worms. Who am I?
I look like a large rat. When my enemy - the dog - chases me, I roll over and pretend to be dead. I can remain this way for 8 seconds or as long as 6 hours.
I am a bird. But I love water more than the sky. I have long thin legs, and sometimes I may be as tall as human beings. Sometimes I am found in a group as large as 2 million!
When I'm born I'm as small as a bee. Then I'm called a Joey. I crawl into my mother's warm pouch and stay there for about 6 months, feeding on her milk, until I grow bigger and can hop around on my own. I am probably the world's best long jumper.
I'm really small, and very fond of your sweet box. If you attack me, I at once create a kind of a scent-spot on the ground to warn my friends coming behind. I live in huge colonies that house as many as 20 million at times.
Big eyes -- that's what I have. The human eyeball is nothing compared to mine, which are like two big basketballs (38 cm in diameter).
You can see my well-made nest hanging from a tree like a lantern. I put a little cow dung in the nest, catch a few fireflies and stick their heads into the dung. This way they can't fly away and their glowing bottoms keep my home well lit!
