A bird so weird the eBird description goes: “Unmistakable. This ridiculous hummingbird has the longest bill in relation to its body size of any bird in the world.”

Sword-billed Hummingbird - eBird
Unmistakable. This ridiculous hummingbird has the longest bill in relation to its body size of any bird in the world. In addition to the striking bill, look for the overall muted green body color with a bronzy head. Found in the temperate zone of the Andes from Venezuela to Bolivia, from around 2,500m to 3,500m. Occurs in montane forest and edges, where it uses its bill to feed from long tubular flowers. Visits feeders.

During these challenging times, we could all benefit from a smile, so I would like to present the oldest smile in the world: the Mannetje van Willemstad (the little man from Willemstad, Netherlands).
The Mesolithic figurine, dating about 5400 BC, was carved in oak wood. 🧵 1/2

The waterlogged, anaerobic environment within prehistoric pile dwellings provided ideal conditions for the preservation of organic materials like wood.
This bucket-like vessel made of oak wood and two smaller bowls (maple and ash wood) were found in In Reute Schorrenried.
Dating 3900-3500 BC.
