Hey everybody,

Europes biggest mayfly is flying. The so called Tisza fly (Palingenia longicauda) will be up to 130 millimeters long and is living next to the Hungarian Tisza River. Today scientists, tourists and friends of nature getheres together in Kanjiza to view the spectacular "blooming" that only lasts a few hours.

Even nature seems to take a break when it comes to taking things seriously, that's how this long eared mouse (Euchoreutes naso) was created. These mice are now in the spotlight of research: Universities in Halle, Germany and Ulan Bator, Mongolian Republic are trying to study their behavior.
