Butterfly Wings Alphabet

Nature Speaks in English Sometimes...
Today I stumbled upon a really fascinating little site: Butterfly Alphabet. Meticulously sought-out and collected there by scientists and amateurs alike are the LETTERS, NUMBERS and SYMBOLS found in everyday nature patterns and particularly in butterfly wings.
Here is the Butterfly Alphabet:

What's more, on this site, you can write your name, or any text in the butterfly (or other nature pattern) letters and send the card to your romantic interest for a good "wow, how cute!" effect. For example, this is "Dark Roasted Blend" written in butterfly letters:

and "Mazel Tov!" written in Nature's Alphabet:

Nature's Smiley Faces!
Some of the endearing faces found on that site. They have heart pictures, too!

Animal Acrobatics

Climbing: involuntary
New definition of "lost":



This moose is not just "hanging around". It's actually quite a sad story

"This moose got his antlers stuck in a newly-laid power cable, strung on the ground for miles. When the men (from a big distance) pulled the lines with their heavy equipment, he went too. They could not get the line straight and went searching for the problem. The moose was still alive when they lowered him..."

Make sure you read the similar stories here and here. All are very odd...

Voluntary climbing

These Moroccan goats love to climb trees, attracted by the "argo" nuts.
Locals use these nuts to make oil. Goats seem to get a kick from both nuts AND climbing. More on that here

"Wildlife filmmaker Tristan Bayer is ready for his closeup while making the wildlife adventure documentary Earthling. Luckily they say that white bears can't jump! The bear huffed and puffed and finally won the staring contest by defeating Tristan with his foul bear breath." See the bigger version here.
