The world's smallest #WaterLily is the #NymphaeaThermarum . The pads can be as small as 1cm in diameter. It's native to a single location in #Rwanda & was discovered in the early 1980s. It was believed that this water lily was extinct, but it was rediscovered.
The #stonefish is 1 of the most #VenomousFish in the world, known for its remarkable ability to #camouflage itself like a rock. They use their camouflage to remain hidden until prey comes within striking distance, at which point they rapidly extend their mouth & inhale the prey.
#BannermanCastle on #PollepelIsland , NY, built by Francis Bannerman VI in 1908, served as a surplus #MilitaryWarehouse . Abandoned after his death, efforts to preserve and restore it are ongoing, offering guided tours to visitors interested in its unique history and architecture.
