    Nice one @wafercookieflippers @Alansmart  and speaking about birds, did you noticed why do birds bob their heads when they walk ? To stabilize their visual surroundings. Unlike us, we depends on eyes movements rather than the head movements to hold the images presented to us while in moving. The back and forth movements on birds are not just random head-bobbing 🐦

    Wow, so many interesting facts about birds! Very interesting! Here is another “creature” fact. While this doesn’t have to do with birds, it is still very interesting! Did you know that the shortest lifespan of an insect is only 24 hours? That lifespan belongs to the Mayfly. Within these 24 hours of its life, it is born, finds a mate, breeds, and dies.

        Octopuses 🐙 Mythology and superstition have portrayed octopuses as alien beings or evil creatures dwelling in the terrifying dark depths of oceans.

    However Octopuses are widely considered to be the most intelligent of all invertebrates. ...

         The giant Pacific octopus has three hearts, nine brains and blue blood, making reality stranger than fiction. A central brain controls the nervous system. In addition, there is a small brain in each of their eight arms — a cluster of nerve cells that biologists say controls movement. ... Two hearts pump blood to the gills

    The shortest name of the place is "Å" and it is located both in Norway and Sweden. I've heard about it few years ago when I was learning Norwegian. Hope you will find it interesting 😊

    Durian is one of stinkiest fruit ever, it actually banned in some country, it’s odor described as smell of turpentine and garlic garnished with gym sock that you can smell it from a yards away. Despite of it smell durian actually taste really good, Durian is very popular in Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia there over 300 varieties of durians. Durian is good source of potassium an electrolyte that can help maintain your blood stream on your body, not only that durian actually cholesterol-free and it contains monounsaturated fats that can reduce fats. On the bad note eating durian and drinking beers at the same time it might kill you, it is more likely to cause bloating, indigestion, and discomfort as you liver has to work extra hard to metabolise  both fats and sugar from durian and beers.

    Interesting. I think I saw something like this in China but I had no idea what kind of fruit is that. Thanks for the tips, it's good that I didn't buy it as I was drinking a lot of beer there 🍻

    Here's an interesting fact about sharks - The Greenland Shark lives in Arctic waters and slowly grows to an average length of 16 feet. It scavenges for its food and is attracted to the smell of rotting meat in the ocean. It's also known to primarily live in deeper ocean depths compared to other sharks. A group of scientists conducted radiocarbon testing on the eye lens of 28 female sharks and determined its life span to reach at least 272 years. They concluded that the Greenland shark is the longest-living vertebrae known to man.

    Very interesting facts you guys! Here’s one about the Internet: Did you know that it is roughly estimated that only about 4-16% of the Internet is accessible through Google? This part of the internet is known as the “surface” web. This means that it is roughly estimated that the remaining 84-96% of the Internet cannot be accessed through a simple Google search. This part of the internet is, as you may already know, comprises the Deep web and Dark web (a section of the Deep Web).

    Do you know it doesn’t take 24 hours for Earth to turn completely, but 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4 second.

    I did know that @mysticalmysty, and it is very interesting! Perhaps we go by the 24 hour day for simplicity sake. Here's another fact about calendars: Did you know that the earth actually takes around 365.25 days to orbit the sun? This is where the purpose of the leap year comes in. The leap year we have ever four years (the next one being next year in 2020), is said to account for this fraction of a day.

    Here’s a fact that is rather spooky. I was just watching a video on haunted roads around the world, and there’s one that really caught my eye. This road is called “Clinton Road” in New Jersey, and it considered my some to be either the most haunted, or one of the most haunted roads in the United States. Many strange and creepy things have be known to occur on this stretch of road. If you live close to New York, then you may have heard of this road. Here’s a link to the video if you would like to learn more! Click on the first search result. Let me know what you guys think.
