Daffodils— A Sight To Hold To The Heart

Image
Daffodils in Dora’s Field, Rydal, Lake District by Simon Whaley Landscapes. Dancing daffodils! This sight of daffodils open a window from the past where we can hear the beautiful lyrics, wrote by  our nature loving poet,  William Wordsworth. The “host of golden daffodils, beside the lake, beneath the trees, fluttering and dancing in the breeze” that he describes are said to have been inspired by those in Glencoyne Bay, Ullswater, on a visit with his sister Dorothy in 1802. Wordsworth spent much of his life in the Lake District, the perfect place for a key figure in the Romantic movement and passionate environmentalist to get close to nature. To mark the anniversary, the Wordsworth Museum has been expanded and modernised and Dove Cottage has been refurbished to help generations of new fans discover Wordsworth.

The First Sign Of Spring

"Crocus" Nagano, Komoro Spring is coming! Today is Keikei (baby or immature plant).  It is said that the signs of spring have come and the hibernating insects are crawling out.  It is the term of the spring season until the vernal equinox ... Crocus that blooms at this time is said to be "a flower that tells spring" in Europe, and the flower language "coveted" is attached when waiting for spring.  However, depending on the color, there is another flower language, and the purple crocus is accompanied by the word "regret of love".  Be careful when giving to your lover.

The Messenger Of Happy Season

Male mountain bluebird in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming Hello, mountain bluebird Welcome back! Although this bright fellow may be enduring the last of this year's snow in Yellowstone National Park, his presence means winter will soon be ending across the world. Bluebirds are a symbol of happiness and a welcome sign of spring in many cultures. Soon other migratory birds will arrive in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem - a seven-million-hectare tract that includes Grand Teton National Park and surrounding national forests. It's the world's largest intact ecosystem in the northern temperate zone. What exactly does that mean? Since wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone 25 years ago, all the animal species that were first documented by European explorers can still be found here. (© Jason Savage/Tandem Stills + Motio)

Spectral tarsiers in a ficus tree in Tangkoko Batuangus Nature Reserve, Indonesia All eyes on sustainability We don't need an excuse to highlight and celebrate wildlife, but as it turns out, today is the UN's World Wildlife Day.

The UN and its partners are producing a series of programs and social media activities, including an event at UN Headquarters in New York, a film festival, and an international youth art competition. Tangkoko Batuangus Nature Reserve in Indonesia is a great symbol of biodiversity, protecting hundreds of species of plants, mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians. Among the threatened mammals there are these spectral tarsiers. These small nocturnal primates have eyes that are larger than their brains, giving them an alien-like appearance. They're not in imminent danger of going extinct but are classified as vulnerable, and their population has de...

Rio Mundo— A Timeless Journey

Image
Source of the Mundo River, Sierra de Alcaraz, Albacete. The birth of the Rio Mundo is a show that you should not miss.  This tributary of the Segura sprouts hidden in the Albacete mountain range of Alcaraz thanks to an underground aquifer of karst origin that emerges abruptly and is then torn up by a cliff of almost 300 meters.  This is what we show you today in our photograph and it is between the towns of Vianos and Riopar, in the natural park of the Calares del Mundo and Sima.  If you want to go see it, you should know that in the nearest car park there is only room for 100 cars and on weekends it is usually crowded, so early in the morning if you do not want to queue. The River Mundo is not named for the noun "world" of the Latin "mundus", but for the adjective of the same language that means "clean", as opposed to "unclean."  Its groundwater flows from a cave that is still to be explored, since to date only 30 kilometers of the 60...

  Humpback whale feeding on herring off the coast of Kvaløya, Troms, Northern Norway. Today is valentine's day. People make new love tales by inventing new ways to send romantic, adorable messages and gifts for the reminiscence of their love and beloved ones on 14th of February. Here is another lover, another tale of courtship which gives a true sense of belonging to those who are romantic at the hearts. The humpback whales have a way to reach to their lovers' heart especially the males. The Male humpbacks are famous for their haunting songs, which can last up to 20 minutes and be heard over great distances underwater. Scientists aren’t sure why exactly the males sing these ballads, but some assume it’s related to courtship. That sounds romantic enough, but ladies take note - the humpback isn’t one to settle down. It's a migratory animal that swims up to 25,000 kilometers a year, travelling from southern breeding grounds to Arctic waters like these.
