Did you know that when baby flamingo chicks are born, they are almost completely white? 🦩 They get their signature pink color from their mother’s crop milk, and eventually, their own diet 💗
To nourish her young, a mother flamingo’s feathers are drained of some color, so nursing flamingos will be duller than the rest of their flock! 😲

Today is Appreciate a Dragon Day 🐉 Meet the Blue Glaucus (Glaucus atlanticus), better known as the Blue Dragon 💙
This tiny sea slug feeds on venomous Portuguese man o’ war jellyfish, storing their stinging cells (nematocysts) for its own defence ⚠️
While its sting isn’t usually dangerous to humans, it can cause skin irritation, so it’s best admired from a distance (as with all wildlife) 🙅
The Blue Glaucus floats upside down at the ocean’s surface, drifting with currents 🌊 This means individuals can travel huge distances and turn up across oceans worldwide 😆

Torrent ducklings grow up in fast-moving mountain rivers and instinctively swim against the current just days after they are born 🌊
If they can do it… so can you 💪💚

This “waking popcorn” is a flatid planthopper nymph from the rainforests of Ecuador 🍿
Their name of planthoppers is well-deserved because they can jump about three feet in a single bound 😲
As they hop around to forage or flee predators, their fine fluffy fibers (which are waxy white filaments) act as a cushion to break the fall 😎
