Recording the nature beauty to sensibilize and protect it

07/06/2022

In 2018, I encountered this beautiful Great Black-backed gull (Larus Marinus) on the tiny volcano Island of Rangitoto, near the city of Auckland, New Zealand . 🇳🇿

Used to human presence, I could approach him at a good distance to take these shots. 📷

Largest member of the gull family, their lifespan in the wild can reach more than 25 years if they don't disappear earlier.

Some beautiful schooling yellow snappers on the reef of Koh Bida Nok, a small island 🏝of Phi Phi Archipelago, in Thailand. 🇹🇭

They are usually found in coral reefs and stays as a group, partly to protect themselves from predators.👌

This beautiful Hawksbill Turtle used to live in the waters of Phi Phi Island.🏝 Thailand 🇹🇭
It was easy to recognize her due to her missing arm and always a pleasure to see her swimming around us.💙

⚠️ As they don't have gills, they must come back to the surface to breath. It is then really important to not stress them underwater, If you see one of them coming up, please leave a safe space around it to not be a disturbance.👌

Kuhl's stingray, also known as blue spotted stingray are a very common species of rays. 👌

This one was found in Bungalow Bay, a divesite of Racha Yai 🏝, an island near Phuket, Thailand. 🇹🇭

⚠️ Overfishing, and aquarium trade are once more some of the threats that this species encounters.
As the rays dwell in the reefs, the destruction and pollution from fertilizers and pesticides hurt them.

Save the bees 🐝 help save the planet! 🌏

Exhausted, unable to fly, this cute honey bee was found in a kiwi orchard.

After putting some honey on a fork, we gave it to her, and few minutes later, she flew away ready to forage some flowers 🌻

Try to have some honey in your car, and if one day, you find a distressed bee, you might be able to save her.👌

⚠️ It is one of the most important animal species on the planet, without them, we will not have trees, flowers, fruits and vegetables to eat.

We depend on them, so please understand that they are no threat for us and let's save them together!😁

In addition to the video that I posted yesterday, you can now see three different Seamoths, including a unique sight, a juvenile one. 😲

The first picture was made during a night dive in Kata, Phuket, Thailand.🇹🇭

When Seamoths deploys its "wing-like" pectoral fins, you can understand why their scientific name "Pegasidae" is inspired by Pegasus.

This wonderful fish 🐟 is a Seamoth, or Pegasidae, found at 8 meters in Kata Beach, Phuket, Thailand. 🇹🇭
It's name comes directly from Pegasus, the creature from the Greek mythology.

Their wing-like pectoral fins, and their long snout give an amazing look to these fishes.👌

⚠️Sadly, one of the five existent species is listed as vulnerable, and we don't have enough data for the remaining four.
The threats are fisheries, aquarium trade, or human consumption as a medicine in some cultures, and more...

City view of Auckland, New Zealand 🇳🇿 from the top of Mount Eden, the highest natural point in the area.⛰ (196 meters/ 643 ft)

Maungawhau, or Mount Eden, is a dormant volcano🌋 which is 28,000 years old located in the city of Auckland.
Maungawhau is the original Māori name, meaning "mountain of the whau tree".🌴

The quick hike and the sight there is amazing, I recommend to go up there if you stop by Auckland!

This amazing creature is a Lionfish (Pterois is native from Indo-Pacific) found in Banana Bay, a divesite of Racha Noi island 🏝, near Phuket, Thailand. 🇹🇭

😔 Unfortunately, some specimens has been released in other oceans as the result of the aquarium trade, cargo transportation and other reasons, which made Pterois an invasive species in many parts of the globe.

⚠️ Please, if you do collect and care of exotic fishes or other creatures in your house, do not release them in the wild, they might create a huge disturbance in the local food chain! ☠

This pigeon 🐦takes a rest in the stone wall of a Christian church in the small city of Pujaut, south of France. 🇫🇷

In the Christian religion, they are the symbol of peace and of the Holy Spirit.⛪

Pigeons are perceived as dirty birds, however, due to their fastidious self-grooming, they are actually very clean.👌

An Hermit Crab 🦀 crawling on top of an artificial reef located in Vikings Cave, a dive site of Phi Phi Islands, Thailand. 🇹🇭

Most of species have a curved and spirally soft abdomen that is protected once the crab find a shelter, which is most of the time an empty shell of sea snail. 🐌
