    Portuguese priests would bless sailors before a voyage saying, *the Good Lord blessed you to be born in Portugal, but gave you the whole world in which to live and die.*
    Mr Douglas certainly epitomizes that sentiment.

      Sadly, even if she was born the year this was filmed, she’d be 20+ now and possibly the oldest dog alive. Cattle dogs like her live from 8-12 years. Maybe a touch more. Sad to report, RIP Bundi. Ever the Good Girl.

    Just a thought on the Gouldian Finches. Commentary says they`re endangered. In 2018/9 I lived in the forest area town of Belgrave, Victoria. Had hundreds of these visit my deck area daily along with the Australian King Parakeet. Perhaps their status has improved?

    "Whale sharks, the largest fish in the ocean". What were they thinking when they came up with that name.

    • @danielwitham1791
      @danielwitham1791 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Whales aren't sharks, sharks aren't whales, but they're considered a fish species. So they were thinking scientifically when stating it's the world's biggest fish, which is correct. Many marine biologist dislike the name "whale shark", as it confuses many laypeople. Some also believe sharks shouldn't be considered fish.
      It's a gentle filter feeding giant and likely confused early whalers which is also likely where the whale shark name originated.
      Hope that helps

    I can't help but to be very curious, what species is the school of black fish @ 21:46 into this episode . Has anybody out there got any ideas what they are please?
