Did you know that lovebirds are only 1️⃣3️⃣-17 cm in size?
Despite their small stature, they’re famous for their big personalities… and their big love. They often stay with their partner so closely that they inspired the name “lovebirds” in the first place.

Did you know that hummingbirds get their name from the soft humming sound their wings make as they beat? Their wings flap so fast that the sound is audible to both humans and other animals. They can hover in mid-air with incredible wing-flapping speeds, from about 1️⃣2️⃣ beats per second in the largest species (Patagona gigas) to 99 beats per second in the smallest ones!

We know we’re a bit late to the party… 🎄🌝
We’ve been outdoors, so our Advent calendar starts today.

Speaking of being late and taking things slow…
Today’s Advent calendar window (🔟) is: the sloth.
These chill jungle residents take hours to cross a single tree, nap for up to 15 hours a day, and their top speed is… well… barely measurable. Did you know that hey move so slowly that algae literally grow on their fur?

Untamed Nile: The Lifeline in the Desert! Releasing this Thursday

In Episode 3, we follow the journey of the Blue Nile, the White Nile’s most vital tributary, springing from Ethiopia’s breathtaking highlands. Explore the stunning Simien Mountains, a paradise for vultures and home to rare wildlife like the Walia Ibex and the mesmerizing Gelada baboons. Did you know there used to be a Yellow Nile? Though it dried up 6,000 years ago, its source still sustains an isolated species of crocodile found nowhere else in Africa.

From Egypt’s ancient temples and tombs to the bustling Nile Delta, where over 80 million people live, we dive into the rich history and modern life shaped by this legendary river. Witness the story of two brothers making their living hunting Egyptian cobras, and trace the Nile’s final journey as it dissolves into the Mediterranean Sea. Don’t miss this extraordinary exploration of life along the world’s most iconic river! 🐊
