Like I've said before, on the weekend I tend to distance myself from politics. So please forgive me for the slew of non-political posts.
I strongly encourage any nature lovers to check look at this photo series of Socotra Island off the coast of Africa. It is in an island chain that has been isolated from the rest of the world for 7 million years, like Galapagos, so their evolution has taken a different path as well. It is home to over 700 extremely rare species, 30% of which are found no where else on Earth.
