For Christians, today marks the resurrection of Jesus Christ and brings Holy Week to a close. It"s a turning point, both spiritual and symbolic.Desktop Version
Castle Day Japan
Castle Day Japan
Picture northern Japan in the early 1600s. Castles stood at the crossroads of politics, trade and governance. Across generations, they came to reflect not only moments of tension, but also endurance, adaptation and everyday life. Castle Day, celebrated on April 6, was created to highlight that layered past. The day uses a simple phonetic link—shi (4) and ro (6)—to form Shiro-no-Hi, because "shiro" means castle in Japanese. It"s a reminder that castles had serious jobs long before they had cinematic appeal.Desktop Version
Common clownfish in a sea anemone, Raja Ampat Islands, Indonesia
Common clownfish in a sea anemone, Raja Ampat Islands, Indonesia
Sea anemones may look like underwater flowers, but they"re actually animals—close relatives of jellyfish and corals. Anchored to rocks or reefs, they use a sticky base and a crown of waving tentacles armed with tiny stingers to capture passing prey. Those stings can paralyse small fish, yet one famous neighbour is immune.Desktop Version
Seattle, Washington, United States
Seattle, Washington, United States
Seattle"s waterfront seems suspended between sea and sky as soft light settles on the horizon. The city in Washington, United States, is named after Chief Si"ahl, a leader of the Duwamish and Suquamish peoples, whose legacy remains important to the region"s identity. Steep streets lead down to piers that sweep across Elliott Bay. Rising above the shoreline, the Space Needle stands out as the city"s most recognisable landmark. Pike Place Market, founded in 1907, overlooks the waterfront and continues to anchor daily life and long-held traditions.Desktop Version
Sgwd yr Eira waterfall, Brecon Beacons National Park, Wales
Sgwd yr Eira waterfall, Brecon Beacons National Park, Wales
Water spills in clean lines at Sgwd yr Eira, one of South Wales" most distinctive waterfalls. Its Welsh name means "Waterfall of Snow," referring to the pale curtain of water sliding over the rock face. What sets this waterfall apart is access. A narrow path leads visitors behind the falling water, immersing them in sound, light and movement at close range. Sgwd yr Eira lies within Brecon Beacons National Park, often called "Waterfall Country" for its network of rivers and falls carved into wooded gorges. Well-marked trails connect this waterfall to others along the River Hepste, making it a popular stop on longer hikes. Above the valleys, the landscape opens into rolling moorland and long ridgelines where upland paths are shaped by wind and changing weather. These contrasts define the Brecon Beacons, where open, exposed uplands give way to sheltered water, tying the landscape together.Desktop Version
Siblings Day
Siblings Day
Ever caught siblings plotting? In Karula National Park, Estonia, it looks as though these two red fox kits froze mid-conspiracy, their expressions mirrored in curiosity and caution. They"re not just springtime fluff; they"re apprentices in survival. Born in litters averaging four to six kits, foxes grow quickly, their underground den becoming their wrestling ring, classroom, and testing ground. Older kits often help feed, guard, and teach the younger ones, turning play into practice and mischief into muscle memory. In their families, siblings are not background—they"re backup.Desktop Version
Papagayo Beach, Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain
Papagayo Beach, Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain
A beach born from fire rarely does so subtly, yet Papagayo Beach manages exactly that. The shoreline we see today rests on the southern edge of Lanzarote, one of Spain"s Canary Islands. Tropical fantasy? More like volcanic precision. Millions of years ago, this land rose in successive layers of basalt and ash thrust upward by submarine eruptions.Desktop Version

When the lights go down, the universe puts on a show. International Dark Sky Week, celebrated each April, invites everyone to rediscover the night and learn why darkness is worth protecting.

Fewer lights don"t mean less safety—smart, well-designed lighting can do both.Desktop Version

International Bat Appreciation Day
International Bat Appreciation Day
On 17 April, International Bat Appreciation Day flips its cape to the planet"s night shift: bats. With more than 1,400 species on every continent except Antarctica, these winged mammals keep ecosystems balanced. They"ve been on Earth for over 50 million years, and only three species are true vampires. Found only in the Americas, these bats feed on blood, while the rest survive on insects, fruit, nectar or pollen. In Texas, Bracken Cave can host up to 20 million Mexican free-tailed bats in summer. Many gulp crop pests, cutting pesticide use; others pollinate wild agaves and disperse seeds that help forests rebound.Desktop Version
World Heritage Day
World Heritage Day
Today, on World Heritage Day, attention turns to places that tell humanity"s shared story—protected for their exceptional cultural or natural value. One of them rises from volcanic stone on Easter Island, Chile. At Rano Raraku, the slopes of an extinct volcano became the workshop where nearly all of the island"s famous moai were carved. The image captures this remarkable quarry, where half-finished figures emerge from the rock, frozen mid-creation.Desktop Version

European hedgehog, France
European hedgehog, France
Spring arrives with a small, spiky ambassador: the European hedgehog, spotted here in France. Part cuddle, part survival gear, this tiny forager is mostly nocturnal and usually solitary, guided mainly by smell and sound. Its job description is simple: roam, sniff through leaf litter and vacuum up invertebrates like worms, beetles, slugs and caterpillars—the kind of snacks that keep ecosystems running and gardeners smiling. When danger shows up, it doesn"t negotiate or flee. It curls into a tight ball and lets its spines do the talking.Desktop Version
Earth Day
Earth Day
Earth Day didn"t knock gently. It kicked the door wide open. In 1970, oilsoaked beaches, burning rivers and toxic air mobilised millions into street protests. When looking away was no longer an option, conservation was forced onto political agendas, sparking landmark environmental laws and flipping planetcare from fringe concern to global priority. Every 22 April, over 190 countries pause, reflect and reassess.Desktop Version
