Natural CRY

Haunting face crying a river of tears as glacier melts into the sea.

At first glimpse it looks like any other glacier you might find in the freezing Arctic wastes of Norway.

But on closer inspection an eerie face is depicted in the melting ice wall that appears to be crying a river of tears.

The forlorn-looking 'Mother Nature' figure appeared to locals during a thaw, with the melting ice and snow falling towards the sea below.

The striking image of the Austfonna ice cap, located on Nordaustlandet in the Svalbard archipelago, would seem certain to be heavily used by environmentalists protesting against climate change.

Wildlife World: Polar Bear

Augo the polar bear playing with his blue bucket at Aalborg Zoo, Denmark. The four-month-old cub has taken to wearing the plastic pail as a hat in his enclosure. He pokes his head in the container and attempts to stand on two legs, before, inevitably, falling over, all with caring mother Malik looking on.
