if you have any space to garden, whether it’s an actual garden or just some pots on a balcony, please do consider this source for some beautiful summer flowers that will also make bees very happy.
Because sometimes what you need most is your own personal boxer crab cheerleader, smiling and waving their little sea anemone pom-poms to raise your spirits and urge you to always do your very best:
The boxer crabs and sea anemones have an awesome mutualistic relationship. Although the anemones are not required for their survival, the crabs use them for personal defense and in return the anemones get a free ride that increases their chances of snatching tasty morsels of floating food. Some crabs have been known to live without anemone friends and others use sponges or coral instead. Still, the image of a brave little crab waving two stinging sea anemones about is supremely cute and literally quite cheering.
The Blue Lava of Kawah Ijen Volcano. The ‘blue lavas’
are a rare phenomenon, only visible on the Kawah Ijen Volcano, in
Indonesia. It may look like the volcano is spewing blue lava, but in
fact, the shocking blue fire occurs when the volcanic sulphuric gases
combust. Emerging from cracks in the volcano’s side, these gases ignite
when coming into contact with air. It’s not actual blue lava, but blue
flames. (video)
