Every birth is distinctive and noteworthy in its own way. What’s even more surprising is that a baby might appear to be in a bubble when it is born “en-caul,” which occurs when the amniotic sac is still intact following delivery. Vaginal delivery is so uncommon that many mothers have never even heard of it until their own experience. En caul deliveries, in which a child is delivered with the amniotic sac still in place, happen rarely approximately 1 in 80,000 times. Whilst still extremely uncommon generally, it is more frequent during cesarean births than during vaginal births. Parts of…

Even before birth, mothers and their children had a special link. After all those months, a sometimes difficult but ultimately fulfilling relationship begins. Since parents provide their young ones with necessities like food, drink, shelter, and sleep as well as develop strong attachments with them, mothers play a significant part in their mental health.

You begin to have a passionate and contented bond with your child…
When bumblebees get tired from buzzing around gathering pollen for their baskets, they just crawl into a flower and fall asleep. While many species of wild bees sleep in flowers regularly, honey bees usually work in shifts and sleep and nap in the hive although they may well stay out if they lost their bearings during the day’s foraging. Bumblebees, on the other hand, flap their wings as fast as 200 times per second. In addition, they have an extremely fast metabolism, so they have to eat almost non-stop! It’s no wonder that they get tired and direly need a…

This left Samuel, the photographer, with an ethical dilemma: “My first impressions were amazement as I had never seen anything like it before,” he told Gizmodo. “I contemplated freeing the fish as I felt bad…
