Langurs, India

Photograph by Stefano Unterthiner, National Geographic

This Month in Photo of the Day: Nature and Weather Photos
After a rare downpour langurs seek shelter from a fleeting desert waterfall. The Thar is usually inhospitably hot and dry, reaching 120°F. These monkeys, which are about two feet long and 25 to 40 pounds, are the only primates besides humans that thrive in this harsh habitat.

Blue Pond, Hokkaido

Photograph by Kent Shiraishi, My Shot

This Month in Photo of the Day: Nature and Weather Photos
The “blue pond” of the famous tourist resort in Biei, Hokkaido, Japan is a place where many tourists gather in spring, summer, and autumn. However, since this pond freezes in winter, nobody is there during that period. This photograph was taken during the first snow of the season as it fell over the blue pond.

Oxpecker and Giraffe

Photograph by Ben Bronselaer, My Shot

This Month in Photo of the Day: Nature and Weather Photos
I love the markings of giraffes, and when this oxpecker clung to the side of one, I thought it would make a perfect “abstract painting” to capture the little bird on.
