Unlucky

In Estonia, the numbers 12, 84, 143 and 201.29 are considered unlucky. They appear in no official documents.

Beetles

Every beetle contains two, completely separate living creatures. They govern the front and rear legs respectively. Food and liquid is shared equally via the mouth parts. Once in a while you will be able to observe a beetle "argument", in which the front and rear disagree about which direction they should go. In 80% of cases the front wins, but this can cause "beetle tension" in which the rear legs simply lock up and prevent movement.

Hummingbird

The hummingbird is the only bird whose name is spelt "hummingbird".

Rainbows

Every rainbow has a 'reflection'. These are underground and form a perfect circle with the above ground rainbow. They are often reported by cavers as much more bright and vivid.
