Wildlife Spotting

How interesting Pam - it reminds me of cypress "knees"! It does sound like the general consensus here is that this is caused by erosion & not any kind of living organism, & therefore it doesn't really belong on Project Noah, so please can you remove the spotting.

Very very interesting, Pamsai I have seen same thing after rain in Kerala. :))

But, yes, it's erosion :) I've noticed similar "buildings" just with different material -> http://www.flickr.com/photos/94700363@N05/11650630055/ :)

Looks so great! :))

My thought is also erosion.

Wonderful Sharing

It's beautiful. As a small village.

I used to think that they are made by termites but I later on found out that there are just too much of these coming in various sizes and their insides are just plain sand or mud. My father gave me a logical explanation that the rains washed away (or eroded as what Sarah has said) the area around it but the ground under the pebbles are shielded by the stones so erosion are weaker under them resulting in these unusual formations.

Still fascinating though, and I love the picture.

That sounds like more fun! :)

I think I've seen something like this before. Could it be erosion?
