A tree that irrigates itself. 😲
For the last two decades, during the spring floods, the water has been running out of this old mulberry tree in a village of Dinoša, Montenegro. It's likely due to high groundwater pressure coupled with a hollow section in the tree.

This is the rare, almost confusing, moment when two lions quenching their thirst are disrupted by a seemingly aggressive terrapin who is not happy with any visitors in his part of town.
