So shiny

kbtibbs.bsky.social•7 days ago

I like its subtle little dimples.

tarnado.bsky.social•7 days ago

I believe those are officially called "punctuation!"

kbtibbs.bsky.social•7 days ago

I love that! Okay, this is going to a big distraction for however much time it will be a distraction for.

I love how you described a beetle as variegated. Like, "I'm a plant person but I observe this thing about this bug"

tarnado.bsky.social•6 days ago

LOL indeed. I think the english name is something similar though, let me look - ah, "varied carpet beetle." I went with the first thing I could think of, though.

compostwitch.bsky.social•6 days ago

definitely. I love applying terminology from one field to another. That beetle is also ovate!

iNaturalist suggests Carabus nemoralis, a slug and worm hunting beetle from Eurasia. Since .most all our slugs here are also from Eurasia, I hope it feels especially welcome!
