Life under the Sea
Wave Makers Having been blessed to be born and grow up in a beautiful tropical environment has made me aware and more cautious about how to reduce, reuse and recycle items that I use daily. The motto if my country the Bahamas which is reflected in my national flag is the beauty of the sun, sand and sea.

Lobster is theoretically able to live forever
Have you ever stared at a lobster and wondered curiously what makes a creature look so much like an extraterrestrial visitor? Have you ever wondered what our lives would be like if this creature eventually ruled the Earth? Want to hear some spooky knowledge? Theoretically, from a biological point of view, lobsters can live forever. If they are not predated, not starved, not afflicted by disease, and not involved in any terrible disaster, they can live forever; but they do not.

Beware: Aggressive Elk
The sign said to beware of aggressive elk. I had been warned. I just didn't expect to see them there in the middle of downtown, sprawled across the median, through the street, and over toward the concrete parking lot. They congregated in small clusters, like teenagers loitering at a strip mall. Some seemed to be showing off. Others looked on lazily from the grass.

A day at the Bat Cave
Growing up a “River-rat” on the Tennessee River and Lake Chickamauga in south east Tennessee. being out on the water enjoying nature runs deep in my blood. My wife Lauren grew up, and our sons Brett and Bradley where growing up “City-Slickers” they’ve never really been into going out and doing things in nature or playing in dirty lake water. They will occasionally play in a pool or go for a bike ride. But they have never really had the opportunities or know how to get much more into nature than that. Now living in North Carolina less than a 10 minute drive from Lake Hickory, 45 minutes from Lake Norman, and 20 minutes from Lake Rhodhiss not to mention dozens of mountain rivers and streams within an hours drive. It breaks my heart that my family has never really got to enjoy the great outdoors like I did when I was a child. I decided about two years ago that it was my responsibility as a father to introduce my family to mother nature weather they liked it or not.

10 Reasons You Should Plant Trees near your home today
Right now, the days are getting shorter, and the leaves are almost entirely off the deciduous trees here in Australia. The temperature is dropping and many of the scary animals are going into hibernation too, which makes it the perfect time to start planting trees. Since the trees are going into their dormant phase, too, the nurseries are starting to stock bare root varieties, which are often 50% of the cost of their potted counterparts.

The American Eagle- my Nemesis!
The Eagle. Since 1782 it has been the symbol of America and freedom. It is a mean bird. They are a vicious hunter that has taken numerous fish off of my fishing line. There have been two different occasions that their flight toward me has caused me to jump into a freezing river or lake. I can not count how many small dogs or cats have been lost to their long talons of deaths. On one occasion, while running late to a meeting- I came head-on to an Eagle perched upon the roof of my car, and it would not move. Do you know what it is like to call your boss and tell him you're running late because the mean Eagle won't let you leave your driveway?

Wild Horses in Iceland
The picture I grew up around horses. I rode horseback before I could walk and was fascinated with everything equine. I had every horse book and every horse figurine I could find. I watched Black Beauty on continual repeat. My passion for horses continued throughout my childhood and early adult years, even leading me to do my undergrad senior photography project on horseback while helping heard cattle. It’s not easy to steady a camera on a moving animal, but god was it fun. However, while I spent considerable time around horses, one experience had always eluded me. Seeing them in the wild. It was a dream, but one I didn’t realize I would have to travel so far to fulfill.

Amazing creatures that live in the deep sea
Start writing... Man is now about to touch Mars. The moon is about to touch again. But not much is known about the deep ocean around our planet.Deep-sea astronauts are just as lucky as some astronauts who go into space. Despite knowledge of deep-sea fish and other organisms, deep-sea creatures are still being explored.Vampire Squid.This animal is very attractive. But it is very rare to see this with the naked eye. They survive at a depth of about three thousand meters under the sea. The eye of this animal is amazing. This animal can also look like an umbrella.As well as being able to turn from a different angle and look like another creature. It must have got that name because it looks like a vampire bat. This animal is often found in the tropics and associated deep seas. This is how it looks.Can live at very low oxygen levels without any problems depending on.Pacific Viperfish.This animal is about 1 foot [30 cm] long. It has a mouth that can be opened wide compared to the body. It has very sharp teeth like thorns. This animal lives in the deep sea from two hundred to one thousand five hundred meters. Ordinary divers cannot see these animals. These animals can be seen on special deep sea voyages.Wolffish.Found in normal water, this fish can live up to 600 meters deep. It eats small animals such as small mollusks and shrimp. This wolf is often found on the Scandinavian coast and the Mediterranean Sea. This fish has a large set of front teeth. As a result, this fish looks like an animal with a set of human teeth.Giant Tube Worms.These are a kind of worm-like species that live in large colonies. These worms live in large numbers in the cold, low oxygen and dark environment of the deep sea. They are found in the deep sea from 2000 to 3600 meters.These tube worms often live in deep-sea areas rich in minerals. Because they absorb the mineral by bacteria.If these worm colonies are associated with volcanic eruptions under the sea, they will die without being able to withstand the high temperatures of the volcanic eruption. But it has been found that these re-emerge after recycling.Six-Gill Shark.This shark comes during the day in Vancouver, Canada. But they can go up to 2500 meters at night in search of food. It can grow up to 4.8 meters in length and feed on other sharks, crabs, seals and small sea creatures. These animals are also considered to be living fossil fish. This is because the shape of this fish is similar to the ancient fish found in ancient fossils.Giant Spider Crab.This giant spider crab is the largest arthropod of the genus Arthropods. This crab can live up to a depth of 300 meters. These crabs are mostly found in the Sea of Japan. Large crabs up to 3.7 m in size are found. One of their ovaries is more than 1.5 meters long.It is also known as the spider crab due to its long, thin claws. They are different from ordinary crabs. In some cases the total weight of this animal may be more than 20 kg.Frilled Shark.People once believed that creatures lived only in the upper part of the ocean. But today it is known that many creatures live at depths of several hundred feet below the water level. The majority of these species are diverse fish. We call these deep sea fish. Deep-sea fish come in a variety of colors depending on the depth at which they live.
