Pink-headed Fruit Dove (Ptilinopus jambu)

The exquisite Pink-headed Fruit Dove (Ptilinopus jambu), also known as the Jambu Fruit Dove, is a living masterpiece native to the montane rainforests of Indonesia, particularly on the islands of Sumatra, Java, and Bali. This shy and elusive species is celebrated for the breathtaking beauty of its plumage, most notably the male's striking, rich magenta-pink cap that transitions into a delicate rose-pink throat, creating a vibrant focal point. This stunning coloring is framed by a pristine white chest band and contrasts dramatically with its emerald-green wings and back, providing a clever natural camouflage amongst the lush canopy foliage where it spends its life. These birds are specialized frugivores, preferring a diet of figs, berries, and small wild fruits harvested from the upper layers of the forest, often seen individually or in pairs. Their understated, purring calls are soft enough to easily blend into the natural chorus of the rainforest, making sightings a special and rewarding moment for bird watchers.

Huayna Picchu Stairs of Death

'Stairs of death' (15th Century CE), are a section of stone steps, built by Incas (1438-1533 CE). The stairs of death located at peak Huayna Picchu mountain, 2693m above sea level (one of steep mountains that overlooks Machu Picchu), Peru. These stairs lead to top of Huayna Picchu, where we found Inca ruins on top. The Incas used agricultural terraces and platforms that resembled steps to cultivate crops. The spectacular old city of Machu Picchu is remarkable among the stunning views, along with the view of the Temple of the Moon. The stairs of death are also known as Huayna Picchu Stairs of Death, they are so narrow, sometimes you can't even put both of your feet on a step. Additionally, there won't be anything for climbers to hang onto when climbing these stairs except from the terraces on one side. Read More – Elafonisi Beach – Pink Paradise on a Greek Island

Silfra is the only place in the world where diving and snorkeling is possible right there.

 

Saviours of Pakistan.

Aitazaz Hassan Bangash Shaheed, a fifteen-year-old child, prevented a suicide bomber from entering the school premises six years ago, saving hundreds of other students. When a fearless 15-year-old Pakistani student saw someone wearing a suspicious vest trying to enter his school in 2014, he decided to confront the intruder despite the advice of his friends to run. In a selfless act, he tackled the man, setting off the vest's explosion and giving his life in the process. This bravery prevented a potential tragedy and saved the lives of numerous other students. His father later said, "My son made his mother cry but saved hundreds of mothers from crying for their children."
