I love my Science and Nature Pinterest board. I collect lots of beautiful nature pics and try to learn about the place or animal in the picture. Post your nature pictures here. Whether you find them on the web or take them yourself. Try to give a little info about your picture. Travel pics are great too!
 Solomon Island Prehensile Tailed Skink is an arboreal species of skink endemic to the Solomon Islands. It is the largest known extant species of skink. Other common names for this species include the prehensile-tailed skink, monkey-tailed skink, giant skink, zebra skink, and monkey skink. It is completely herbivorous, eating many different fruits and vegetables including the pothos plant. It is one of the few species of reptile known to function within a social group or circulus. Both male and female specimens are known to be territorial and often hostile towards members not a part of their family group. I had never heard of a "skink" before. |

   Arctic Circle transformed into ghostly world In what appears to be the set of a science fiction movie, photographer Niccolo Bonfadini has captured ghostly images of trees buried under a foot of snow in the Arctic Circle. Snow and frost become so thick the entire landscape is transformed into an otherworldly planet. http://news.yahoo.com/photos/arctic-circle-transformed-into-ghostly-world-slideshow/arctic-trees-photo-1343068100.html |

I put it out over twitter to see if anyone knows the name of the flower. I think there's a way to google images but I don't know how to use it with a photo.

Torgo, I know you've GOT to believe your eyes, but I should have thought that there are no trees on the arctic circle.
Or maybe there are, but they hid them from my geography teacher as he prepared for his teaching certificate. At any rate, I think these are trolls. They used to be the ones plaguing Mingle2, before the management brought in the superbly fine troll-busters, our league of moderators, well respected and much liked. |

I was actually wondering about the tree thing... |

I think the skink in the picture is very pretty. Maybe too much so, and she is showing it off; this skink may be a skank. What will they come up with next. A "skonk"? A newly discovered snowman indigenous to the fyords of Norway, with a prehensile penis (frontal tail) that helps it find females, food and the nearest bar. |
