    This bird creates a FAKE entrance to its nest to trick predators.

    The penduline tits (Remiz pendulinus) construct amazingly ingenious nests. The name ‘penduline’ refers to the hanging bag nests that the bird builds for its eggs. While the shape and form of the nest are impressive on their own, it also features a very unique and important defense mechanism: a hidden entrance. Penduline tits primarily inhabit Eurasia, Africa, and North America. They typically measure between 3 to 4.3 inches (7.5 to 11 centimeters) in length and are characterized by a brown back, gray head, and a distinctive black mask. They construct pear-shaped nests on the branches of willow or birch trees. Initially, the male initiates nest construction by attaching plant fibers…

    The Sailing Stones of Death Valley

    In California’s Death Valley, large stones move across the desert floor, leaving long trails behind them. Despite many studies, no one has directly observed how these stones move. The mystery of Death Valley’s “sailing stones” has long stumped visitors to the national park and scientists alike. How do rocks at an area called Racetrack Playa, some larger than a microwave, move several yards across the desert floor, leaving tell-tale trails in the sand? Ralph Lorenz, a planetary scientist at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, may have cracked the case at his kitchen table. Lorenz employed a tried-and-true method for testing his nascent idea: the kitchen-table experiment. “I took…

    A Colorado store employee said she was surprised the first time a deer walked through her doors, but even more so when the deer brought her whole family back later for a visit. Lori Jones said the deer, a doe she named “Mama,” walked into her store, Horsetooth Store, Gas, and RV Park, on Dec. 16 in Fort Collins, Colorado. “Mama came in the front door and I kind of did a double take,” Jones said. “She came on in and I just started laughing.” Jones said she tried to shoo Mama away, but the deer was too busy checking out a rack of sunglasses.

    Titanic

    Why can’t the remains of the Titanic be resurfaced? The Titanic sank in 1912 and it took over seven decades to locate its remains. They will stay where they are until the ship is consumed and vanishes. The Titanic was on its maiden voyage across the Atlantic Ocean in April 1912. The ship that had been touted as “unsinkable” set out from Southampton and was enroute to New York City when its hull was ripped open by an iceberg. It took around two hours and forty minutes for the massive ship to be claimed by the sea along with over 1,500 passengers. It would take over seven decades to locate…

    Hartashen Megalithic Avenue: Ancient Mystery of the Armenian Highlands

    The Hartashen Megalithic Avenue, hidden deep in Armenia’s rugged terrain, is one of the world’s forgotten ancient wonders. Believed to be 6,000 to 8,000 years old, this mysterious site consists of towering stone monoliths, meticulously aligned across the landscape. Was it a ceremonial path? An ancient observatory?

    Empty House

    I hired a plumber to help me restore an old farmhouse, and after he had just finished a rough first day on the job: a flat tire made him lose an hour of work, his electric drill quit and his ancient one ton truck refused to start. While I drove him home, he sat in stony silence. On arriving, he invited me in to meet his family. As we walked up the front walk, he paused briefly at a small tree, touching the tips of the branches with both hands. When opening the door he underwent an amazing transformation.. His face was wreathed in smiles and he hugged his two…
