Drone captures a whale opening its mouth to feed. That is a big mouth.

The only reason we need drones tbh

@avocadoshawty

it messed me up when i realized the reason baleen whales have those weird vertical stripes under their mouths is because it’s actually all folded and when they open their mouths it expands into an enormous pouch that goes down like half their body

Horded ducks see water for the first time

> That was heart warming, thanks!

> “NOO I DON’T KNOW HOW TO SWIM!!!…. wait, this is built in? well now I feel silly..”

> Who the heck hoards ducks?

> That music was the best.

> Beautiful video, thanks for sharing this gorgeous moment for those ducks.

> Love the way they stop as a group right at the waters edge as if to say “NO THANKS!”

> “Oh wow! I’m like a boat! You guys! Hey! You have to try this! I’m like a boat!”

> I almost skipped watching this because the video isn’t embedded, but the promise of seeing something adorable was just too strong. I wasn’t let down.

ABBY!

This beautiful Swedish lady sings an ancient Viking song. Now watch how the cows respond. 

It is often argued that everything our ancestors did and said gets stored into our brains. Their experience and knowledge gets passed down from generation to generation. This may explain why we know or react to certain things without having any prior knowledge.

Kulning is an ancient herding call used in the Scandinavian region. The call is a high pitch tone that can reach long distances. The herding call sounds more like a haunting and sad melody meant to echo through mountains and alleys.

It was getting late and foggy on a magical night last month when Swedish artist Jonna Jinton wanted to try kulning. She wanted to find out if the animals would answer to the call their own ancestors heard when the women called them. Kulning might just be one of the most beautiful and enchanting sounds ever made.
