    Kryztian, One time many years ago I was with a friend in Minneapolis. We parked in a lot outside her work, and in the tree right in front of us were at least 50 Cedar Waxwings. We sat and watched for quite a while - it is still a treasured memory. Your photo is so beautiful.

    'A dog thought to have the world's longest nose has become a social media sensation due to her unusual looks. Eris, a borzoi, was adopted as a puppy by owner Lily Kambourian, 27, in 2018. At the time, it was apparent she 'might have an overbite' but her nose has now grown to be 12.2 inches long.
    Borzoi, breed of hound dog developed in Russia to pursue wolves. It is descended from the Arabian greyhound and a collielike Russian sheepdog. The borzoi—formerly known as the Russian wolfhound—is a graceful, strong, and swift dog'

    Well, you can probably predict it coming, but it still counts as magical

    Waxwings are indeed one of the most stunning birds to behold. I don't think I've ever seen one for real, but here is a Cedar Waxwing image I just found.

    From ExplorersWeb:

    Arctic Hare Travels A Record 388 km (241 miles)

    As satellite tracking has become more common, we’ve learned more about the impressive long-distance treks of supposedly non-migratory creatures.

    Two years ago, we reported on an arctic fox that wandered 3,500km from Norway to Canada over the Arctic Ocean ice. Now an arctic hare, normally a stationary creature, has hopped almost 400km in 49 days. It’s the longest journey of any hare or rabbit on record.
