Earth Science Picture of the Day

Black Sun in Denmark

During spring in Denmark, at approximately one half an hour before sunset, flocks of more than a million European starlings (sturnus vulgaris) gather from all corners to join in the incredible formations shown above.

This phenomenon is called Black Sun (in Denmark), and can be witnessed in early spring throughout the marshlands of western Denmark, from March through to the middle of April.

Each day a different image or photograph is featured, with an accompanying caption, that deals with various topics in Earth Science.

The little elephant that taught Tiger Woods how to play golf returns in this minigolf game. You know the rules :} Just put the ball in the hole!

Controls: Move the Mouse up or down to aim. You can increase or lower the power of the shot by moving the Mouse Cursor farther or closer to the ball.
