What is nature's most exciting (coolest) occurrence for you?

The way the seasons naturally progress and follow a rough estimate of a formula- just when you're tired of all of the snow, it's spring! When you're tired of the heat and humidity that comes with summer, fall begins. The constant variety is amazing, and the dependability of simply knowing "Oh, it's gonna get cool and the leaves are going to begin changing" is comforting.

Frost on windows and cars in the morning- the insane rigid and beatiful structure of these frozen water particles and how they form spontaneously is simply breathtaking.

Lightning is VERY cool... er, hot. I saw a car get struck once; the tires simply EXPLODED all at once. After it had cooled down a bit, there was an amazing array of intricate root-like burns that covered the car's surface. It's kind of like Mother Nature reminding not to mess with her, because she will most certainly fuck you up.

Think of the delicate balance of Earth... She's tough as hell, but even a small amount of change in the atmospheric gases, pressure, or temperature has such a wide range effects on plants, animals, and in turn, humans. Like we're allowed to remain living because of this mathmatical perfection of the correct combination of molecules and atoms.

And who could forget the blob fish?
