A Humphead Wrasse, also known as a Napoleon wrasse, builds a living frame as it swims through a school of fish in the waters off Australia.

Stunning, Vonny. Absolutely stunning!

What a shame they are in such danger!

@Frank Apisa,
I agree - so sad that such beautiful creatures are still being slaughtered for their ivory. A recent study found that ivory-seeking poachers have killed 100,000 African elephants in just three years. During 2011 alone, roughly one of every twelve African elephants was killed by a poacher.

8,000 feet up in the mountains of Evergreen, Colorado, we are visited every morning by this very healthy looking vixen.

Pre-hibernation Peacock Butterfly
Stunning dash of colour in an autumnal colourscape. Amazed at how close it let me get - felt special.

I'll never trust the guardian again - that's a King Parrot, not a Rosella which looks like:

or in the case of Crimson Rosella, this:
