Heaven on earth: Divine gatherings of wildlife

<![CDATA[Seeing lots of animals and birds at one place is itself divine. You feel as if many colors are spread all over the place. Let us go on the journey of the awesome gatherings of the wildlife.

Pacific Walrus

Usually Pacific Walrus spend their winters in Central and South Bering Sea and migrate to Chukchi Sea for summer. They give birth to their calves on the northward migration to Chukchi Sea. Walrus cannot keep swimming for a longer period and must rest. Their divine gathering is in itself magical. They get violent over choosing their mating partners and their huge gathering at one single place makes it look like a war on earth. (Source)

Stingrays

The water gets all covered with Stringrays. It gives an impression as if someone has decorated the water to make it look like a sky covered with so many stars. An annual migration of stingrays takes places in Atlanta and Caribbean. They remain almost under 72 feet and make a long migration that is the result of the change in the water temperature. Theses Stringrays have poisonous stingers on them but are non-threatening when they migrate in large numbers. (Source)

Wild beasts

Wild beast and zebras gather together to cross the Mara River. They appear impatient as each of the gang members is in hurry to go that side to taste the green grass on the lands. The migration takes place from Serengeti Park in Tanzania to Masai Mara in Kenya. Millions of wild beasts try cross the river and some of them get into the mouth of hungry crocodiles that rarely leave an opportunity to feed themselves. The bodies of hundreds of animals keep floating over the river as the predators enjoy killing them, and they get many this time of the year. (Image)

Snow Geese

The migration of snow geese in Asia is one of spectacular miracles of nature. These birds keep migrating over Himalayan mountains and have surprisingly well defined migrating routes of their own. These birds are strong family guys and do not break their relationships. (Image)]]>
