Seven colorful compasses, each with a different colored body and cord, arranged in a circular pattern.

Gus is an adventurous gnat that flies all around Grand Caillou in Dulac, Louisiana. He visits his friends on the bayou, and most people consider gnats to be pests. However, Gus is simply the best.  He shows his ability to be a true friend to bayou creatures and his family.
