Free diver is swimming over a pod of Sleeping sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus) Researchers first saw this unusual sleep behavior in sperm whales in 2008. The scientists in that study found that sperm whales dozed in this upright drifting posture for about 10 to 15 minutes at a time, Vulnerable (IUCN). The sperm whale is the largest of the toothed whales. Sperm whales are known to dive as deep as 1,000 meters in search of squid to eat. Dominica, Caribbean Sea, Atlantic Ocean.

Red Indian fish, Pataecus fronto. Note big pectoral fins that look like 8 finger hands and help the fish to move and grab among the sponges and corals. It is a relatively rare species and we don't know much about it's biology. But it has been discovered that, like the snakes, it regularly moults. When it grows, or the skin is old, it changes it as if it were a used outfit, in one swoop, getting rid in the meantime of the parasites and the encrusting weeds. Australia. Composite image

Rainbow over the Amazon rainforest. An unusual scene from a helicopter. After the rain comes the sunshine, and not just any sunshine. The sun's rays allow a rainbow, straight out of a film, to emerge from the dense rainforest of French Guiana.

Rainstorm over the Amazon rainforest. A shot taken from the air of a rather inclement weather forecast. In the tropics, thunderstorms and heavy showers are a regular occurrence, and it's not unusual to see the curtains of rain that give life to the diversity of flora and fauna in the jungles of South America - French Guiana.

Ice hairs on dead wood in the Bugey region. An unusual winter phenomenon that has long remained a mystery: under the effect of frost, extremely fine (0.02mm), curved ice fibers grow several centimeters from the pores of dead wood on a branch, provided the wood is colonized by a saprophytic fungus, Exidiopsis effusa, whose presence prevents the formation of crystals. As soon as the first rays of sunlight appear, these hairs .France
