Look at these lovebirds
Love is in the air today: it's Valentine's Day! Across the globe, millions of flowers will be sent, and romantic restaurants will be fully booked for Valentine's dates. This day has its origins in the story of Saint Valentine, a Roman Christian who, according to legend, performed marriages for Christian soldiers who were forbidden from marrying. Just like the human lovebirds who will be celebrating today, nature also has its own romantics.
