The bank swallow is a small migratory songbird that moves north to Canada each spring to breed and raise its young over the summer. Unlike most other songbirds, which build nests in trees, bank swallows dig nest burrows in substrates such as silty sand and other suitable materials.

Bats

Welcome to the understudied world of bats!

Here at IOC, we recognize that we have a unique opportunity to contribute to the scientific study of bats, a nocturnal animal that has historically been misunderstood.

Pollinators

The smallest and busiest of creatures are often the most overlooked. Insects such as bumble bees, butterflies, wasps, and moths play a vital role in keeping an ecosystem in good health by pollinating flowering species so plants can reproduce.
