In Honduras, the annual rainy season comes fish
Rain of animals - a relatively rare meteorological phenomenon, although such cases have been documented cases in many countries throughout the history of mankind. But Honduras - this phenomenon regularly. Every year, between May and July in the sky there is a dark cloud, lightning, thunder, strong winds and 2-3 hours of heavy rain pours. Once he stops, the earth are hundreds of live fish.
People collect it, like mushrooms, and are home to roast. Since 1998, the festival is held here «Festival de la Lluvia de Peces» (Festival of the Fish Rain). He is celebrated in the city of Yoro, Department de Yoro, Honduras. One hypothesis of the occurrence of the phenomenon lies in the fact that the strong winds lifted into the air from the water the fish for several kilometers in height as the water of the Caribbean Sea from the north shore of Honduras abound in fish and other seafood. However, no one has ever witnessed, as it is exactly.
