My boobs are big because that's where I store the illnesses.

USA Today dug into the history of one of the private contractors who helped make the baseless decision that Andry Hernández Romero, a gay makeup artist from Venezuela, was a gang member. Looks like the contractor—and not Andry—was the one with the suspect history: www.usatoday.com/story/news/i...

generalstrikeus.com I just realized this is a good day to post this again.

Happy birthday to the remarkable Maria Sibylla Merian. Here's an animal named for her, Salvator merianae, the Black and White/Argentinian (although I saw this one in Brazil) tegu lizard.

W is for Wednesday, and for Williams' Tiger Moth, Apantesis williamsii - which, helpfully, has a "W" on each forewing, one of the best examples of personal branding in the insect world. 🐙🌿 #insects

We left the lodge at 5AM today to look for this fancy boy and I managed to spot him. 😁Resplendent Quetzals are considered near-threatened due to habit loss. And that tail is real, no April Fools joke here. 🪶 San Gerardo de Dota, Costa Rica

Snails of Cuba! We found 5 species, including the most endangered and most beautiful, Polymita sulphurosa. Project on evolution/conservation of these snails, led by Cuba, me @ #UoN, and working with London zoo, Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany. #snails #cuba #fieldwork

One of many moments in Omar El Akkad’s new book, “One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This,” that will stop you in your tracks.

Mossy leaf-tailed gecko, Uroplatus sikorae, Madagascar. These lizards have some of the most amazing camouflage in nature. I especially love the fractal fringing on the bottom jaw, feet, and body, which helps break up the lizard's outline. 🦎🌿 #herps

My file corrupted and it looks like an album cover

Leafhoppers are always worth a closer look - even the "drab" ones can have all sorts of interesting patterns and coloration. (Mojave Desert, California) #insects 🐙🌿

What an amazing insect - and as always, great photos by @tshahan.bsky.social

It’s the first time a frog—or any amphibian—has been observed pollinating a plant, researchers reported in 2023. Learn more on #WorldFrogDay: scim.ag/4kGdvCy

It's easy to assume modern photo equipment eclipses the capabilities of old gear, but it's not always true (hence the vintage lens fans out there). Pic 1 taken with a 1964 lens - uncropped, no sharpening, texture, or clarity added in post. Pic 2 is a 200% crop of the same shot. 📷 #landscape

Shame on those who willingly voted for Nazi scum. I hope you find comfort in not the country, b it the world you're building—have built, for us.

I am not one who embraces invasive species and "novel ecosystems." I also spend a lot of time exploring invasive-infested, degraded lands. And I love those places. This is my attempt to come to terms with degraded lands...how a naturalist lives in a "world of wounds."

Here is your Saturday Spider, a crab spider that has caught a native bee, Calliopsis sp. (maybe C. puellae?). @mhedin.bsky.social has a better photo of the scene, in a flower, but by the time I took this the spider had moved down the stem. Notice that the spider has lost its two right front legs.🐙🌿

An alien-like Western Tiger Beetle larva (Cicindela oregona) waiting at the entrance of its burrow for prey. One of my favourite photos I have taken! #iNaturalist #Coleoptera #TigerBeetle #macrophotography

Really loving how this one turned out. #horse on the left is Biscuit, horse on the right is Almond. #rdo mounts serving me and a friend through thick and thin 💪 #art #myart #digitalart #portrait #drawing #digitaldrawing #illustration #digitalillustration #sketch #digitalsketch #horseart #rdr2

Great time on SAT teaching a Macro Workshop with @tjalamont.bsky.social, hosted by the Anza Borrego Foundation. despite dry conditions we found some things, including this crab spider with leaf-cutter bee prey found by one of the participants looking forward to doing this again in the future
