This article caught my eye because I have never seen a pink lake before. This lake is on Middle Island in Western Australia. The lake is 600 meters wide but the reasoning behind the color of it is still yet to be determined. White salt rims the lake and the color may be caused from a low nutrient concentration and even just bacteria. The pictures of this lake are beautiful and there is not anything like it.

As seen in many sea salt production facilities, the brine can often turn a pink color due to the high salinity and presence of certain bacteria. While no single cause can b attributed to this lake's pink hue, its stunning color has captivated all who have come across it.

There are some beautiful colored lakes around the world that draw people's attraction. This one is more fascinating due to the fact there isn't the same algae inside the water to make that color and yet it still is pink. Just another amazing mystery or world holds.

L’opération de la dernière chance pour ce petit marsupial ? Le diable de Tasmanie - puisque c’est de lui qu’il s’agit - est en effet menacé par un cancer de la face qui a décimé l’essentiel de sa population. Et dans son île australienne, où ce curieux animal est devenu une espèce culte, on prend l’affaire on ne peut plus au sérieux...
