Here’s a gorgeous bird, full of handsome plumage and possessing a pretty amazing vocal range which he uses to lure in his potential female companions. He illustrates his wide experience with the world as his sounds go from great and pretty mimes of the local birds to the sound of camera shutters being clicked to those – and I’m serious – of chain saws.
Here are a few interesting videos of lightning strikes – Mother Nature’s Prime Time Light Show. Fun to watch from a distance, no one wants to be that golfer in the Southern United States who has been struck 7 times. Evidently, he has a hard time making up a group when there are clouds around!
