The duck foot tree, common across Thailand, signals winter with its intensely fragrant flowers that smell sweet to some but cause headaches and nausea in others due to high concentrations of linalool and other essential oils.

Prachinburi River Turns Black, Locals Suspect Chemical Pollution

Black, foul-smelling water has contaminated the Prachinburi River after the Irrigation Department opened a drainage gate releasing water from nearby rice fields. While government officials claim the discoloration and odor come from rotting grass, local residents insist the water contains chemicals, citing an unbearable stench and drawing parallels to a previous pollution case at Sri Maha Pho where chemical contamination was confirmed. The acting governor has ordered water testing, but locals allege samples were taken only from cleared surface water after sediment settled, not from the polluted discharge itself.
