Death Gulch is a famous, somewhat remote site in the northeastern part of Yellowstone Park, Wyoming. It is located in a mountainous ravine above the southern banks of Cache Creek, well upstream from the Lamar River-Soda Butte Creek confluence.
The site was discovered in the late 1800s. Explorers found numerous animal carcasses littered about the ravine floor. They had been killed by volcanic gases emanating from vents - principally carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S).
Location: 44° 49' 16.56" North latitude, 110° 06' 48.17" West longitude

STS135-S-227 (21 July 2011) --- Enshrouded in darkness, space shuttle Atlantis touches down for the final time on Runway 15 at the Shuttle Landing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Securing the space shuttle fleet's place in history, Atlantis marked the 26th nighttime landing of NASA's Space Shuttle Program and the 78th landing at Kennedy. Main gear touchdown was at 5:57:00 a.m. (EDT) on July 21, 2011, followed by nose gear touchdown at 5:57:20 a.m., and wheelstop at 5:57:54 a.m. Onboard are NASA astronauts Chris Ferguson, STS-135 commander; Doug Hurley, pilot; Sandy Magnus and Rex Walheim, both mission specialists. On the 37th shuttle mission to the International Space Station, STS-135 delivered more than 9,400 pounds of spare parts, equipment and supplies in the Raffaello multi-purpose logistics module that will sustain station operations for the next year. STS-135 was the 33rd and final flight for Atlantis, which has spent 307 days in space, orbited Earth 4,848 times and traveled 125,935,769 miles. Photo credit: NASA
Cigüeña blanca
Ciconia ciconia
Características
La cigüeña blanca o cigüeña común es un ave de plumaje blanco y negro y pico rojo. Las cigüeñas jóvenes tienen el pico inicialmente negro y después marrón.
Hábitat
Viven en zonas pantanosas, prados húmedos y aguas superficiales en terrenos abiertos
Es un ave migradora que vuela hacia sus cuarteles de invierno en África Oriental por dos rutas bien delimitadas (sobre el estrecho de Gibraltar y sobre el Bósforo).
La cigüeña blanca no se encuentra en dificultades sólo a causa de la destrucción de su hábitat. Los accidentes, casi siempre mortales, debidos a choques en vuelo con líneas eléctricas no aisladas y los riesgos derivaods de las actuales campañas químicas antiplagas apenas dejan a estas aves alguna posibilidad de supervivencia. En Europa Central, en los últimos 20 años su población ha disminuido de una manera alarmante
Reproducción
Su gran nido se ubica a gran altura, sobre edificios, torres, chimeneas y árboles, en emplazamientos despejados.
El tiempo de incubación para sus 3 a 5 huevos es de 33 ó 34 días. Los pollos permanecen en el nido de 54 a 63 días. Hasta la cuerta semana después de la eclosión siempre hay un adulto que permanece vigilante junto al nido. Pasado este período, uno de los padres ya puede ocuparse de sacar adelante las crías en solitario.
Aceptan de buen grado los nidos artificiales.
Alimentación
Se alimenta de pequeños mamíferos, insectos, gusanos; en menor cantidad también de ranas, crustáceos, lagartijas, culebras, peces y carroña.
Cuando retornan de sus cuarteles de invierno, en un principio se alimentan prácticamente de lombrices de tierra (hasta el 90%). En las zonas de invernada el elemento principal de su dieta lo constituyen los saltamontes.

Pintangus sulphuratus
great kiskadee
O bem-te-vi é talvez o pássaro mais popular deste país. É conhecido em toda parte por seu canto, pelo anúncio frequente de seu nome e por sua coloração amarela viva na barriga, garganta e alto da cabeça. Tem uma listra branca que circunda inteiramente a cabeça e seu bico é forte.
Pode ser encontrado em uma enorme variedade de habitats, como campos de cultura, cidade, pomares, orla de mates e em ambientes aquáticos, tais como margens de lagoas, córregos, e rios, onde tem aprendido a capturar peixes que são acrescentados a sua dieta de insetos, anfíbios, etc.
Constrói um ninho esférico, com entrada lateral na parte superior, na forquilha de um galho, sendo bem cuidado e feito de diversos vegetais secos. A postura consta, em geral, de quatro ovos brancos e alongados. É social e vive em pequenos grupos. O barulhento bem–te-vi é comum em todas as regiões brasileiras.
Suas caracteristicas corpóreas: (22,5 cm ; 54 a 60 gramas )
Obs:. São encontradas outras espécies de bem-te-vi, como por exemplo: Bem-te-vi vizinho ( Myiizetes similis ) difere-se do bem-te-vi, em relação ao seu tamanho, com cerca de 17,5 cm ; 28 gramas.
E o bem-te-vi de bico chato (Megarhynchus pitangua ) conhecido vulgarmente como nei-nei, é bem parecido com o famoso bem-te-vi, porém apresenta bico extremamente largo e chato, e canto diferente. Sua área de ocorrência vai do México até o Rio Grande do Sul.
The great kiskadee is a large member of the flycatcher family. It is about ten inches in length. It has black and white stripes on the crown and sides of its head. It has a white line above its eyes. Its chest and undersides are a bright yellow and its throat is white. Its back and wings are brown and its bill and legs are black.
he great kiskadee eats insects like beetles, wasps, grasshoppers, bees and moths. Despite the fact that it is a flycatcher, it also eats berries, seeds, mice, frogs, fish and lizards. It also will dive straight into the water to catch fish.
The great kiskadee is named for its loud "kis-ka-dee" call. It travels in pairs and aggressively protects its nesting territory. One of its most feared predators is the coral snake and the kiskadee will stay away from anything that has the same color pattern as the coral snake.
En las notas de su canto los diferentes pueblos han creído descubrir las palabras y frases más variadas: nei-neí oían los tupís, y pitaguá los guaraníes. "Bicho feo", "bien te veo" y hasta "Montevideo" -al oído de los uruguayos- son sólo algunas de las traducciones de ese grito que los seres humanos hemos determinado, en un acto donde confluyen el humor y tal vez la velada ilusión de comprender el lenguaje de los pájaros.
Los benteveos gozan de una gran capacidad de adaptación al medio, de modo que habitan tanto en regiones cercanas a las selvas tropicales como en sabanas, praderas y estepas o sierras. De todos los miembros argentinos de la familia de los tiránidos son los que mejor se adaptan a la cercanía del hombre ya que no existe parque o plaza ciudadana que no cuente con ellos. La variedad de su dieta omnívora y de los elementos que requiere la construcción de su nido les permite vivir y reproducirse en tan distintos ambientes.
Aunque a veces se los halla en lugares secos, prefieren generalmente la cercanía de lagunas, bañados y ríos o sus inmediaciones. Es muy común verlos posados en ramas o piedras sobre pequeños arroyos o pantanos, donde pueden obtener ranas o peces.
El benteveo es un pájaro familiar para la mayoría de los pueblos americanos, ya que se distribuye por todo el continente, desde el estado de Texas en Estados Unidos hasta la Patagonia, donde parece estar ampliando su distribución en seguimiento del hombre, en nuestro País. Diferentes subespecies se reparten las variadas regiones americanas y residen en ellas en forma permanente, en su gran mayoría.

This is my entry for the Build Your Hobby contest on LEGO Ideas. If you like this, you can help it become a future GWP set by giving it your vote here: beta.ideas.lego.com/challenges/1a8423a1-03cf-400c-ac20-54...
My non-Lego hobby is VR gaming. I love virtual reality because it allows me to be anyone, go anywhere and do anything! I can literally step into the shoes of a daring space hero, explore strange new worlds, fight alien monsters, and find epic treasures, all from the comfort of my own home! All you need is a VR headset which is what I have recreated here. But this is no ordinary life-size headset. If you open up the front, there is a whole vibrant virtual world inside, just one example of the kind of imaginative places that one of these devices can take you! It includes an astronaut minifig so that you can play out an exciting VR space adventure. You can find the extra life behind the waterfall, discover the Easter egg hidden in the cave, fight the monster and retrieve the red ruby! Best of all, if you look through the lenses on the back of the headset, you can see through the eyes of the hero just like you would in a real VR game!

Lake Creek Falls, near Triangle Lake, Oregon, has been a popular swimming and picnicking spot since the early 1900's. However, swimming in the swift, shallow water near the falls can be extremely risky. Visitors are encouraged to use extreme caution at all times.
In the fall and winter, this site is a great spot to catch the amazing show put on by Coho and Chinook salmon and steelhead as they migrate upstream to spawn. In 1989, the Bureau of Land Management built a concrete fish ladder at this site, opening up more than 110 miles of stream habitat to fish.

The original black and white photograph is called "Whyalla - Main Street of Town Centre" (GN15223). The image is from the History Trust of South Australia, South Australian Government Photographic Collection (c. 1890 - 1957). I have edited and colourised the picture, and the unedited black and white photograph can be accessed using the link below:

The following is an extract of the 'Story of Whyalla' from the Whyalla Visitor Centre, "The city itself started as a tiny work camp on the shore at the foot of Hummock Hill, in 1901. The camp was set ups as a service base for the iron ore jetty constructed by Broken Hill Proprietary Company Limited (BHP). The settlement then known as 'Hummock Hill', gradually expanded until 1914 when Whyalla was proclaimed a town. BHP Co. Ltd. extended its industrial activities in Whyalla by building shipyards and a blast furnace in 1940. The booming town was proclaimed a city in 1961. The steelworks started production in 1965. After construction of 66 ships, the Whyalla shipyards closed in 1978. On October 28, 2000, the steelworks became an independent company: OneSteel Whyalla Steelworks, in 2012 the company name changed to Arrium Ltd."
