Drinking turtle tears provides butterflies much-needed sodium, which is otherwise missing from their diet. Video recently shot in the Peruvian Amazon shows an astonishing sight: colorful butterflies drinking tears directly from the eyes of turtles basking by the river

That is so fascinating! It reminds me of Matthew 6:26
Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?
That is just awesome to see how God cares for and provides for His creations.
Such words are called ambigrams.

Boxer crabs use sea anemones to keep away predators. They use boxing moves to protect themselves.
Boxer crabs and sea anemones form one of the most unusual and astounding symbiotic relationships in the entire animal kingdom. These crabs wield sea anemones attached to their claws in horizontal motions as they move. This colorful display serves as a natural deterrent to predators, and when directly threatened, the crab will utilize the sea anemone in a forward, ‘punching’ movement towards the aggressor. The sea anemone’s stinging tentacles serve as the ultimate defense mechanism for the crab.

I wholeheartedly believe I know God's favorite color. However I can not produce fact, I can speculate on observation.
Take a guess?
It is the color of the sky. And 2/3 of the world is covered in water which looks... Blue.
If you created something and could use any color, would you not use your favorite the most?

Costasiella kuroshimae (also referred to as “leaf sheep” and “Shaun the sheep”) is a species of sacoglossan sea slug whose beady eyes and flat face make it look like an adorable cartoon sheep. Add some droopy feelers and a phosphorescent, leaf-like body, and this little darling may just be the loveliest slug in the ocean!
Costasiella kuroshimae, which can grow up to 5 millimeters in length, can be found near Japan, Indonesia, and the Philippines. They graze on green algae, and use the chloroplasts from their food to manufacture their own energy in a process called kleptoplasty. One of the only non-plant organisms in the world that can perform photosynthesis, leaf sheep can survive up to a few months on the energy produced from kleptoplasty.

The term "Beat around the bush" comes from a medieval sport called Bat fowling. This sport had people striking birds with bats. The gruesome sport was waged against birds who lived in low bushes. To give them a sporting chance they beat around the Bush with there bats to wake them up and give em a running start before bludgeoning them to death....yes imagine the video games they must have played since according to politicians it's the only thing that causes violence 😛😎
