What does Amias love most about nature?

It’s inspiring and brings many wonders to the world. I love nature because it teaches you new things and it allows you to go on adventures. I love all the cool animals, plants and life still to be discovered. When I’m walking through nature I feel so peaceful and relaxed. I want to be able to go all over the world and see all the wildlife in their habitats. Without nature the world wouldn’t be as beautiful as it is.


What is Amias's favorite animal—and why?

My favorite animal is the sugar glider because they are cute. It is awesome that they have skin between their arms and legs to help them glide. Sadly they cannot glide from the ground, they have to be on something high to be able to glide. I love that they are nocturnal and are omnivores. They like eating sweet nectar and insects and they live in one of my top places I want to visit, Australia. I love watching videos about them and learning more about this unique animal.


What is Amias's favorite outdoor activity?

I love to go outside and study nature. Looking at all the plants and different types of leaves. I try to find bugs by looking under rocks or digging in dirt and watching what they do. I like to watch the different birds that fly around and I make sure to stay a good distance to not scare them away, I use binoculars and a magnifying glass when I need to. I also love to write in my nature journal and write all the things I see and hear.
