The Secret Language Of Trees

Learn all about the fascinating secret language of trees and how they take care of each other in unique ways in this short educational video.

The Wood Wide Web

“Trees secretly talk to each other underground. They’re passing information and resources to and from each other through a network of mycorrhizal fungi.

Scientists call the fungi the Wood Wide Web because ‘adult’ trees can share sugars to younger trees.

Sick trees can send their remaining resources back into the network for others, and they can communicate with each other about dangers like insect infestations.” BBC News.

Magical Squirrel Moments Caught On Camera

Magical Squirrel Moments Caught On Camera

Magical Squirrel Moments Caught On Camera

Award-winning photographer Geert Weegen photographing Red squirrels has captured some truly magical moments! Read on to find out how his studio started attracting wildlife in his own words below and see some of his amazing and adorable photographs in the slideshow below.

“Six years ago, there was a fox standing on my doorstep, and I immediately rushed back inside to fetch some meat. The fox would come back daily to get more food and I used that as an opportunity to take some photos.

By the end of a second week, the fox would come to the balcony where it interacted with various props I used for photography. Soon before late, a Russian bird paid me a visit and continued on doing so daily. Suddenly, my balcony had become a studio filled with nature props, cameras, mirrors etc. The bird followed me and I followed the bird with my camera, as it searched for hidden food in scenes that I had created. Some photos of this encounter were awarded and published.” Geert Weegen

Walter Mason’s Land Art

Walter Mason’s Land Art

Walter Mason’s Land Art

German artist Walter Mason utilizes only nature’s materials to create his custom artwork series “Land Art”. Land Art is his collection of artistic works using leaves, berries, water, grass, and trees. His outlook on the process is truly wonderful.

“Everything I do is an experiment. If the picture I make is good or not is of little importance in comparison to what I have learned.

If the experiment ‘works’ I have the feeling of arrival, of completion, I am finished with the idea. If it doesn’t work I often learn far more; it makes me think about why I failed, and often gives me dozens of new ideas.” – Walter Mason
