In lectures on the prayers by Queen Kunti in the eighth chapter of the First Canto of Srimad Bhagavatam, Srila Prabhupada described in extremely poetic language how talented the insects were, and what powers they possessed beyond humans. He mentioned how lizards could scramble up polished walls, how vultures could see for miles, and how swans could separate milk from a mixture of water and milk. (Srimad Bhagavatam 1.8.20. 30 September 1974, Mayapura)
