*LIFE IN COLOR*_* GREEN Green may be the most common color found in nature—it's everywhere from leaves, grass, and moss to snakes, butterflies, and even the northern lights. Green represents life, vitality, nature, and, of course, environmentalism.     A green frog sits atop a large lily pad in the waters of Atchafalaya Delta. Although this croaker is a bayou-dweller, its species thrives as far north as Canada.   A pool of water at the mouth of Rio Frio Cave reflects the greenery of Belize's Chiquibul Forest and frames a visitor in silhouette. The easily accessible river cave is a popular attraction.   Leaf-green pierid butterflies alight on the sandy shores of the Tuichi River in Bolivia's Madidi National Park. The vast Madidi wilderness encompasses a staggering range of ecosystems—from snowcapped Andean peaks to tropical Amazonian lowlands.   Two boys share a nighttime bicycle ride down the darkened streets of Hoi An, Vietnam. The city's old town is a World Heritage site filled with historic buildings from the 15th to 19th centuries.   An old stone wall frames the green spaces of a garden at Middleton Place, South Carolina. The 18th-century Low Country plantation is one of America's most distinguished historic homes.   A small Appalachian stream flows through a Pennsylvania pine forest in Pine Grove Furnace State Park. The now tranquil site was once home to a booming iron furnace industry.   A team of rowers uses synchronized strength to drive their shell across the water and through a thin coating of surface algae during an early morning workout on Guatemala's Lake Amatitlan.   A Japanese tea farmer picks leaves in a verdant field in central Japan's mountainous Nara Prefecture. Tea has a long history in Japan but was first brought to the islands from China.

Amazing! Bird sounds from the lyre bird - David Attenborough

David Attenborough presents the amazing lyre bird, which mimics the calls of other birds - and chainsaws and camera shutters - in this video clip from The Life of Birds. This clever creature is one of the most impressive and funny in nature, with unbelievable sounds to match the beautiful pictures. From the BBC.
