In the quaint village of West Chiltington, nestled among thatched cottages and picturesque landscapes, a tale unfolds, and is the year 1879 when a crafty Norwegian lad devises a plan to outwit a simple-minded devil. With cunning wit and quick thinking, he tricks the devil into jumping into a nutshell, trapping him within its confines. Meanwhile, high above in the skies, the RosVertol Mil Mi-26 RA-29112 soars majestically. Its powerful presence contrasts with the delicate Siberian chipmunk on land below. In October near Tilburg, Netherlands, this tiny creature holds and savors a hazelnut while mushrooms dotting the foreground add an enchanting touch to its wild habitat. As evening descends upon us, we witness another scene unfold in April near Tilburg. The RF image captures a Siberian chipmunk feasting on pinenuts from a pine cone amidst its natural surroundings.
