This has been a huge year for finding specimens in amber, from bird wings to dinosaur feathers. But this new finding might be the best one yet: a nearly complete 99-million-year-old baby bird. Scientists found the specimen in Myanmar, where others have purchased or found plenty of other incredible amber samples in the amber mines. But this one is crazy: an almost complete baby bird that lived during the time of the dinosaurs.

As photography has spread all over the world in recent years, so has the number of outstanding amateur images. It’s no surprise that Myanmar is one of the most photographed places, and the pictures of the Golden Land are published on magazines and online. Nat Geo Photographer David Lazar has also been to Myanmar and calls it his favorite place on earth to photograph. He mentions warm and welcoming people, who are generally very open to photographers, and extraordinary sceneries.
