A local resident from the Ionian island of Zakynthos off the west coast of Greece captured an amazing natural phenomenon on his camera, Monday as he snapped a water tornado. A little after 6.30pm the impressive spectacle appeared off the northwest coast of the island near the Volimes area.

The Goulandris Natural History Museum and the Greek Biotope / Wetland Center are raising awareness about the need to protect important habitats with the exhibition "Greek Forests, Green Destinations" at Athens International Airport.
