Bio Diversity

FF
Sometimes when I find it difficult to find my neighbours I try and imagine who went out and actually counted the insects they claim are here in their thousands. Some animals seem to be more present than at other times, so if I stand still will they eventually cross my path? Bio diversity must differ from location to location and so how can the complexity be unravelled especially when the scientific community has such limited funds to study non commercial interests.
