An Entire Day With Nature

    We live in a very fascinating world filled with very beautiful creatures. We are always surrounded by different creatures, big or small or even microscopic, and to be frank majority of these pass off totally unnoticed. Human beings are the most busy creatures on Earth and they are always looking to advance in every possible aspects of life because of which we start ignoring every possible damn thing on Earth which may not have any sort of connection to what we want. In simple words, we have become very greedy and because of this greed the entire Earth is in a chaotic situation. We are very ignorant and our ignorance is very clearly visible to all of us.

    One day a man decided to get rid of all his worries in life, his responsibilities and every other thing in his head which had made him ignorant and greedy in life, just for one day. He decided to go a valley with a few of his friends, actually it was a school located in the valley. They had cameras with them too.

    Lets go a few steps ahead into the trip to that valley. The four friends had entered the valley/school and it was very beautiful at the first sight itself. Small buildings covered by a canopy of trees and the pathway filled with dry leaves and flowers fallen from the trees above, it was just very beautiful and a sight which had to be captured forever.


    That day was really long, walking deep into the valley was a little scary as well but the things witnessed by the four friends were very beautiful and somethings which should never be forgotten. Many beautiful pictures were clicked of very interesting and creepy things, but the thing which caught the attention of this man with his camera the most was a 'Dung Beetle'.

    Dung beetles are those beetles which either partly or exclusively feed on feces. In simple words, these are the beetles which feed on dung as the name tells us.

    This man had always seen Dung Beetles on television and he always found it highly fascinating for some reason. The picture on the right is of a Dung Beetle which he had captured at the valley/school. This picture turned out to be the best among all which he had clicked because this picture shows the daily life of a Dung Beetle. What does this beetle do? Well, the picture speaks for itself, but of course the dung is completely covered by sand.

   Nature has some of the most beautiful things in the world but at the same time it has some of the funniest things as well. As this picture was being clicked, the beetle actually did a whole split which was in fact very funny. But that's the beauty of nature, sometimes you get to see things for once which can never be seen in nature again.

    So as the journey in the valley continued, our man was completely relieved in his mind from all his tensions, his greed and every other thing in his mind. That day he was out there witnessing the nature.

    This was a trip to the Valley School which is located in Kanakpura in the southern region of Bangalore, India.
