and where the Eurasian Nightjar can be heard.
 

The Moorland Clouded Yellow,
with its border and antennae
that are pink.

 



 The carnivorous, insect-eating plant,
the Common, or Round-leaved Sundew,
Drosera rotundifolia.
It is found in bogs, marshes, and fens.

  
 



The Wild Strawberry,
Fragaria vesca.
It is edible and tasty. 


 

 Dactylorhiza incarnata,

A Lady's-Slipper Orchid,
Cypripedium calceolus.
This plant is an indicator of a good natural habitat.
Estonia has a good population of this plant.
In many other European countries, it does not exist.
  

The Saaremaa Yellow Rattle,
Rhinanthus osiliensis,
a flowering plant in the Broomrape Family,
Orobanchaceae,
endemic to Estonia,
and actually only on Saaremaa Island.

birds that go back in time a long way 
 

But going back even further,
a meteor created a crater
at Kaali
