Residents of Venice have reported spotting dolphins, swans and fish in
newly clear canal waters after the usually bustling city went quiet as coronavirus spread throughout Italy.

The country has become Europe’s COVID-19 epicentre , with infections
jumping to nearly 28,000 on Tuesday and its 2,503 deaths accounting for a
third of the global death toll.

But, amid a country-wide lockdown, Venetians have been posting photos and videos of animals reclaiming the city’s canals, usually muddied by passing boat traffic.

The Space Academy tweeted a video of a canal showing water so clear the
bottom of the canal could be seen.

It wrote: “After a week of lockdown... The canals in Venice are all clear
and full of fishes. Kinda gives you the idea what will happen to Earth
without Humans!”

Another posted photos of dolphins enjoying the newly quiet waterways,
writing: “Venice hasn't seen clear canal water in a very long time.
Dolphins showing up too. Nature just hit the reset button on us.”

One person posted a photo of “precious” white swans enjoying a sunny day
on the water.

Earlier this month, Italian Prime Minister Conte ordered a country-wide shutdown forbidding people to leave their homes except for work, health
and emergency reasons.

### - so isn't that a somewhat rather ominous sign from nature to say the least? lol

i.e., we stop choking things up with all our shit and nature reappears
with a vengeance only a week later??

lol if we ever needed proof that we're increasingly divorced from nature & fucking everything up in the process (or 'progress' as we like to call it
hah!) then there's some!

maybe we should listen to it sometime huh :)))

"and the people bowed & prayed
to the neon gods they made..."
