Please enjoy this ridiculously cute butterfly, which was about the size of my pinkie fingernail. It's in the butterfly family called metalmarks (Riodinidae). Males, like these, have reduced front legs and perch using only the rear 4 (females can use all 6). Sarota acantus; Costa Rica 🐙🌿 #insects

Sometimes you have to relax and let your tail down.

Hey all, I know you're tired of 100 Days posts, but do you want to read a ludicrously long post on how DOGE and all have attacked various oversight entities within the executive branch? You do? Well...I guess these last few months have turned us all a little strange jacobharr.is/personal/ass...
