A FB friend posted this photo that she absolutely loves. I would be remiss if I didn't also post the text about these sculptures.

"The Kelpies, towering 30 meters high, are striking horse-head sculptures that represent kelpies, the shape-shifting water spirits of Scottish lore. These magnificent structures are situated between Falkirk and Grangemouth, adjacent to a new extension of the Forth and Clyde Canal and near the River Carron, within The Helix parkland. This project was developed to connect 16 communities within the Falkirk Council Area in Scotland.

Sculpted by the talented Andy Scott, The Kelpies stand as a majestic gateway to the eastern entrance of the Forth and Clyde Canal and the new canal extension, part of the incredible Helix land transformation project. These awe-inspiring sculptures pay homage to Scotland's proud horse-powered heritage, honoring the hardworking beasts that were essential to the country's economic growth for centuries. Standing an impressive 30 meters tall and weighing a colossal 300 tons, these monuments symbolize the immense significance of these animals in Scotland's history."
 

Blue Lobsters Are Actually Mutants​


Red lobsters are the norm at seafood dinners. You'd probably freak out if any other color of lobster was served. Yet, there are blue lobsters in the world, and they're not poisonous or spoiled. They're just incredibly rare! To put it into perspective: Just in the Gulf of Maine, there are around 250 million normal lobsters. But only about 2 million blue ones exist worldwide. You're probably wondering: What accounts for their blue hue? 🤔

Blue Lobsters Are Actually Mutants


It's all a rare genetic mutation, as these things often are. They'll likely survive and grow as a group over time. They look too unappetizing to boil!
