Antarctica's Blood Falls is an outflow of an iron oxide-tainted plume of saltwater, flowing from the tongue of the Taylor Glacier onto the ice-covered surface of Bonny lake in the Taylor Valley of the McMurdo Dry Valleys in East Antarctica.

In Alaska Blood Falls, Iron-rich hyper-saline water sporadically emerge from small fissures in the ice cascades.The saltwater source is a sub-glacial pool of unknown size overlain by about 400 m of ice at several km from its tiny outlet of Blood Falls in Antarctica.

The red Blood Falls was found in 1911 by the Australian geologist Griffith Taylor.The Alaska Antarctica Pioneers first attributed the red color to red algae, but later it was proven to be due to only to iron oxides.The Blood Red Falls are located in remote Antarctica in Alaska.

The researchers and microbiologist done many experiments to found the reason of red Blood Falls.Poorly soluble hydrous ferric oxide are deposited at the surface of ice after the ferrous ions present in the unfrozen saltwater are oxidized in contact with atmospheric oxygen.

According to Microbiologist, water water sample from Red Blood Falls contained at least 17 different types of microbes and almost no oxygen.The microbes use sulfate as a catalyst to respire with ferric ions and metabolize the trace level of organic matter trapped with them such a metabolic process had never before been observed in nature.

This Red Blood Falls fells in Bonny lake and it is equal to almost five floor building height.Lot of visitors have been visiting this Blood Red Falls and will be enjoying very much here and beautiful photos Images Wallpapers and Pictures views captured by the visitor cameras.

The ice is covered almost around the Blood Falls, so nobody can reach to that place.The visitors have to visit Blood Falls only by helicopter travelling.The flow of red Blood Falls will be attracted by visited people and they have the wonderful experience and feel nature and gain the photo snaps in different angles.
