Question: what species are these birds? Somebody posted this picture taken in Malawi with a caption saying these are two barn swallows. To me they look more like house martins, or maybe they're an African species that I don't know. Does somebody know? #birds #birdwatching #Africa

Good news for people who want to make playlists: BNDCMPR is no longer working, but now there is https://www.buymusic.club.

This has got to be the most amazing thing I’ve read this week, Evidence is mounting that large sandstone caves in Amazonian South America, large enough to comfortably walk through and the longest with 1,500 metres of tunnels, were carved out by giant ground […] [Original post on mastodon.nz]

It has finally happened: the #Birdweather PUC picked up the sound of a passing Eurasian bittern.

'He ouwe pik' is een pars pro toto.

Goed nieuws: Willem Schinkel en Rogier van Reekum (beide socioloog aan de Erasmus universiteit) zijn een blog begonnen. Het eerste artikel staat inmiddels online: https://organizedpessimism.noblogs.org/post/2025/01/20/pessimisme-organiseren/

Zie de volgende vacaturetekst. Wat voor mensen denk je binnen te kunnen halen als je ze op deze manier aanspreekt?

Just found out Ian Svenonious has a Substack (I know) since about a month. His latest post (about the use of humans in a post-consumer economy filled with bots) is classic Svenonious:

This is so cool: see where your house was on a 1565 map (or one from a different year): https://www.verbeeld.be/2024/11/17/using-gps-in-the-year-1565/

An escaped scarlet ibis is hanging around in a polder near Dordrecht, and it makes for some incredible photos. The animal looks like it came straight from one of Audubon's books. #birds #birding

So cool! 22-year-old Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, representing Te Pāti Māori as an MP in New Zealand, leading a haka. Absolutely stunning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4F49zMhZn0

Tawny owl in our school garden last night. #BirdWeather wasn't detecting any owl activity near our school, which I thought rather strange since we're close to a pretty large park. Last week I changed something in the settings and it turns out they're in our school […] [Original post on todon.eu]

Would somebody know an easy way to convert an audio file to a video with a scrolling spectrum plot? I can't seem to find easy ways to do this online.

Also I'm not sure I've ever regretted saying something more then when my sister said "no more screen time" and I said "what about scream time" I tried to take it back but it was too late, they couldn't hear me over the screaming

Mooi stuk. Een puntje: in de inleiding van dit artikel wordt Frederik van Eeden genoemd, maar de auteur van de Flora Batava waar het over gaat is Frederik Willem van Eeden, zijn vader.

What is the carbon footprint of the Mad Max movies?

Moeilijk voor te stellen dat de #goudplevier - Pluvialis apricaria - ooit een broedvogel was in Nederland. 🪶 Maar wie weet, kraanvogel, raaf en zeearend kwamen ook terug van weggeweest. Onze #natuur kent andere tijdschalen dan een mensenleven.

What is this and how do I get rid of it? I thought MS only introduced AI in Win11, not in Win10?

Sperwergrasmus!! (Barred Warbler!)

Question about David #Graeber: Wasn't there a website by the David Graeber institute with material for book clubs reading The Dawn of Everything? I seem to remember something like lists of questions and extra reading material, etc.

This guitar/mandolin pick costs 50 euros (!).

I was explaining something to the first graders and somebody asked me a question I didn't know the answer to. Normally I would be honest and suggest we'd look it up, but now I replied: "Sorry, I can't tell you, that's a secret." Sadly that had the opposite effect of what I'd hoped.
