After six years, 4,200 hours of shooting, and 720,000 pictures, wildlife photographer Alan McFadyen finally managed to take a perfect shot of a kingfisher diving into the water with no splash.
Strap on your birthday hats and break out the cake and candles,
because a new ‘dragon’ just hatched inside Postojna Cave in southwestern
Slovenia!
No, they’re not real dragons (we wish fire-breathing dragons were
real just as much as you do) - they’re actually a species of blind,
aquatic salamander called olms, which are nicknamed dragons because of their long, slender bodies.
But even if they aren’t the dragons from your favourite lore,
these hatchlings are a huge deal, because olms only lay eggs once or
twice a decade, despite their 100-year lifespans.
