We had some really great threads last year, with the following four nominated for the Thread of the Year award in this January's Environment Site Awards ceremony.

I think they're great and give a real sense of what the forum is capable of, so if you're looking for a reason to join, check these out.

Default Lost Humpback Whale Calf Bonds With Yacht
Australian media say a lost humpback whale calf has bonded with a yacht it seems to think is its mother. The 1- to 2-month-old calf was first sighted Sunday in waters off north Sydney, and on Monday tried to suckle from a yacht, which it would not leave.
