  1. Extinction Sucks: Dolphins
  2. Sea turtles invade Bournemouth beach with IFAW warnings
  3. Monster washes up on Croyde beach
]]> This video was taken off St. Pete Beach in Flordia. St. Petersburg/Clearwater is a popular holiday destination and is part of Tampa Bay. Until 1994 the beach was officially called St. Petersburg Beach but the name was changed officially; which makes sense as the city of St. Petersburg is miles to the east.

In the video a surfer is follows along behind a motorboat, riding in the wake and is joined by a pair of dolphins doing exactly the same thing.

In Pure Spirit

Have you ever swum with dolphins? Would you recommend it?

Have you ever heard anything even remotely similar?

  1. Swimming dog encounters sharks
]]> In this video David Pagan Butler – a man with a great name and a record of making films for the BBC on natural swimming pools – shows us the highlights behind his own natural swimming pool.

A more detailed guide and DVD are available from Green-Shopping.co.uk. In the meantime this video serves to inspire and impress with the delightful sights and animal attraction of a natural swimming pool.

This blogger lives in Scotland and is not convinced a natural swimming pool would ever be warm enough. Is he wrong?

Are you tempted by one?

]]> Most people know the ray – the slightly strange looking and flat fish. The stingray may be the most famous type but there are others; panrays, thornbacks, eagle rays and even butterfly rays.

This video shows a type of devil ray – part of the eagle ray or mobula genus. These particular devil rays try to fly and we’re not entirely sure why this is the case.

This video, narrated by Doctor Who’s David Tennant, shows a teaser on these flying devil rays as part of a promotion the BBC’s Earthflight program.

  1. Space Monkey: It’s not a planet, it’s our home
]]> This remarkable video shows a money doing the dishes. She does the dishes while a baby clings to her back.

The question is why? My theory is that she’s simply seen people doing the dishes in this way and is copying them. Perhaps the people stopped the eat after all the scrubbing and the money associates the activity with food.

In Pure Spirit

What’s your theory? Why do you think the monkey is doing the dishes in the stream?
