Go here it'll give you a simple easy to understand one:

A food pyramid starts with the produces (plants) on the bottom and works its way up to the top predators. As you work your way up the pyramid 90% of energy is lost and only 10% is passed on. That's why as you work your way up there are less and less animals. And why there are more produces than consumers.
