Toen ik jaren geleden in Lemmer was mocht ik getuige zijn van deze buitengewoon prachtige zonsondergang.

Sore AF from that hike yesterday. Start at 6080’ get to 9200’, in 5.8 miles, at times grueling.
Has me wondering, this second set dance party may have similar effects on many of you. Hydrate, recover and rally.

#WondersOfNature: The #Marble #Caves are a series of intricate marble caverns and pillars that have been sculpted by the waters of General Carrera Lake in Chile.

#WondersOfNature: #Lithops are Namibian and South African plants that have evolved to look like stones.
The name is derived from the Ancient Greek words λίθος (líthos) 'stone' and ὄψ (óps) 'face', referring to the stone-like appearance of the plants.
They avoid being eaten by blending in with surrounding rocks and are often known as pebble plants or living stones.

#WondersOfNature: This very popular photo captured by Timothy C. Roth from Task Force Turtle portrays a snapping turtle that emerged after hibernation carrying the "earth" on its back.
This 13-pound snapping turtle in Maryland is carrying 18 pounds of mud and grass on its back. It hangs out in mud pits during the winter to keep warm. When the turtle comes out in the spring, it brings some of the mud with it!

A rare viewpoint in San Diego Co where I caught ocean views and a snow capped peak. I think it’s Wrightwood. San G and San Jacinto are more east and blocked I reckon.

Many of you might have already seen the ultra cute "sea sheep" (Costasiella kuroshimae), but yesterday I learned 2 mind-blowing facts about the family of sea slugs they belong to:
1. They incorporate chloroplasts (the organelles in plant cells that do the actual photosynthesis) of plants they eat, into their own bodies to do photosynthesis directly for them (that is the green colour you see), in order to survive if food is scarce.
Imagine being able to live from light!

#WondersOfNature: A fog bow, sometimes called a #White #Rainbow, is a similar phenomenon to a rainbow; however, as its name suggests, it appears as a bow in fog rather than rain.
Because of the very small size of water droplets that cause fog, the fog bow has only very weak colors and may appear white.

It's been a cold long winter, and even that day it was cold. According to wildlife experts it's possible that the geese are breeding now and the hatching will be later in April. But then, I'm not a fortune teller. (Most of the time) #CanadaGeese #geesegrazing #wondersofnature #ajalexander #nature

I was driving across rural Upstate NY when I discovered a deer crossing... and another... and another... and then I saw, they just wanted to join the family! (The next few fields looked exactly the same. I'm so happy to see all these healthy deer grazing!) Enjoying the wonders of nature! #Deerfield #deer #deerfamily #beautifuldeer #ajalexander #wondersofnature

#WondersOfNature: Eucalyptus deglupta, commonly known as the #Rainbow #Eucalyptus, is a species of tall #Tree that is native to the Philippines, Indonesia, and Papua New Guinea.
As rainbow eucalyptus sheds its bark, it reveals a neon green inner layer. Over time, as this layer is exposed to air, it ages into different colors - bright reds, oranges, blues, pinks and purples.
