I always believe nature is full of amazing color, and when I see colorful birds, it’s really amazing how beautiful our motherland is. The Cuban Trogon is one of most beautiful species of bird belongs to Trogonidae family. It is also called Tocoror (Priotelus Temnurus), actually endemic to the Caribbean island of Cuba. It is Cuba national bird, and its habitats are dry forests, moist forests, and heavily degraded former forest. It is well spread known to be Cuban Trogon, while in Spanish it is called Tocororo or Tocoloro. The name is actually derived from its repeated call, toco-toco-tocoro-tocoro. Its scientific name is Priotelus temnurus which is very infrequently used in referring to this bird. The colorful Cuban Trogon with a green back, blue crown, red belly and beak, and white throat and chest. Interestingly these colors mimic the colors of the Cuban flag, and that’s why it is selected to be national bird of Cuba. This bird has a long fluffy tail, truly unique amongst trogons. The bird is between ten and eleven inches from beak to tail. When these birds travel, they prefer in pairs flight, creating a heavy noise because of their rough, graceless flying technique. This is very common bird and can be seeing all over the island of Cuba. This bird is rarely seeing on the Isle of Youth Guajaba, Romano, and Sabinal. This bird prefers wet and dry forests of all altitudes and likes to be in the shade as opposed to the sun. The Cuban Trogon nests in already created crevices in trees, primarily abandoned wood pecker holes. The Cuban Trogon feeds on flowers, fruits, and insects. Unlike most birds, it is proficient of hovering while eating. Source: Charismatic Planet

Some of many peoples still remembers the lunar eclipse that occurred on December 21, 2010, which happened to coincide with the date of the December Solstice only the second time since 1638. So here is the chance for those who weren't able to marvel at this natural phenomena, time-lapse photography captured what we missed. The unforgettable event took 5 hours and 38 minutes and was photographed every two minutes. Out of hundreds of shots taken, 61 photos were compiled into this long, sequential series of the increasingly-shadowed moon. when you scrolling down the images, you'll quickly see the mind-blowing transformation between the eclipse’s start and finish.The clarity of these images, contrasted with the pitch-black background, makes this photograph feel almost unreal. It's yet another reminder to us that the greatest wonders of our world come from nature.

Bioluminescent Phytoplankton Glowing waves in California

While vacationing on the Maldives Islands Islands, Taiwanese photographer Will Ho stumbled onto an incredible stretch of beach covered in millions of bioluminescent phytoplankton. These tiny organisms glow similarly to fireflies and tend to emit light when stressed, such as when wave’s crash or when they are otherwise agitated. While the phenomenon and its chemical mechanisms have been identified for some time, biologists have only recently begun to understand the reasons behind it. You can see a few more of Ho’s photographs over on Flickr. Via Charismatic Planet

Magnificent Captures of Bears Family in Snowy Surroundings.

Wildlife French photographer Sylvain Cordier, stumbled upon magnificent moment when he takes an opportunity to capture the family of polar bears set against an absolutely stunning sunset. Most of the photographers wish to capture polar bears within natural snowy surroundings, but more often they couldn’t get chance. Sylvain Cordier, spent 3 weeks in a boat and then finally able to capture two large cubs and their mother around and photographing their everyday lives. As they sit tranquilly and waiting for sun setting, it appears three bears had become accustomed to the sounds of photographer camera. These images are really beautiful, when vibrant sunset is the ideal time for backdrop of massive creatures. Sylvain Cordier sharing his experience in these words; in the evening time I got to about 6.30pm when sunset was imminent, I positioned my boat in the hope of bears would come in the right direction and luckily it would happened same as I thought, the atmosphere was absolutely outstanding. I recognized this would be my best wildlife experience.
