It took me a while to realize what was going on the first time I saw a group like that. Girls go out too, normally with balloons and the bride has her veil. And they normally parade crowded touristic places. There's no room for shyness 😅

Getting married in Barcelona requires the groom to get dressed up and parade around town with his groomsmen.

Illustration from 1837 titled "Black Tern" showing two terns on a sandy beach with sparse beach grass behind them. One tern is fully black with detailed feathers, while the other has a white and gray body with a black head patch. Both stand on the ground with slender legs and pointed beaks. The scene captures coastal bird species typical of European beaches, highlighting their plumage and natural habitat.

🌊 The reptiles of western North America
San Francisco, California Academy of Sciences, 1922.

[Source]

Black and white illustration of a coiled Desert Diamond Rattlesnake (Crotalus atrox), showing its textured scales and distinctive diamond pattern along its back. The snake's head is raised slightly with its tongue flicking out, emphasizing its characteristic rattlesnake features. The image is from a 1922 publication by the California Academy of Sciences and notes the specimen was collected near Tucson, Arizona, in August 1912. This detailed depiction highlights a key reptile species native to western North America, relevant to the Pacific region's natural history.
