This katydid from Ecuador has been affectionately named by photographers "candy-cane katydid". The truth is... we are not sure which species it is. One possibility is a Harroweria nymph, but until someone witnesses the transformation into the adult stage it will remain a mystery.

Did you see the deep-sea anglerfish that bubbled up to the surface? Did you wonder WHAT IN THE DING DANG HECK it was doing there? I talked to some scientists to find out everything I could! HT @sternarchella.bsky.social, @mbarinews.bsky.social 🧪🦑 www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/arti...

SOOTHING BIRD FACT Megapodes, bizarre turkey-like birds found in Australia, Indonesia, New Guinea, and on other islands in that region, bury their eggs in mounds and then abandon them, turtle-style. The chicks hatch, dig themselves out, and are immediately self-sufficient. 🪶

Here’s a great guide on how to photograph owls carefully and in a way that doesn’t stress or harm them. Our human fascination with owls can unfortunately make us a danger to them. #EthicalPhotography #birds #SuperbOwl

Seeing lots of amazing owl pics today in honor of the #SuperbOwl. If YOU can't seem to get a decent owl photo, don't feel bad. This is what most owl pics look like. (I have 4 diff. species, tho!) 🪶

10am and it's got so dark in my flat that I've had to turn on the big light because the smaller light wasn't doing the job, 10am, anyone who pretends to love British winter is a sick freak who deserves social shunning

I think if you wrote up ten left-wing policies in this way - emphasising only their positive intent rather than their plausibility or negatives - you could also get net positives for all of them.

The general sense of everything going to hell in a hand-basket isn’t the best thing to layer on top of my usual January blues but this weekend I got to watch a beautiful Barn Owl emerge from its nest box and start hunting at dusk, floating silently over the fields like a ghost. #birds

The problem with ChatGPT is that you can only know whether it's answer is wrong "modestly coherent" or "extremely proficient" if you already knew what it was.

Quite the indictment of AI products: they are more appealing to people who don't understand how they work and see them as magical The paper concludes: "businesses may benefit from targeting those with lower AI literacy" and "maintaining an aura of magic around AI" ✨ tinyurl.com/ynefd8zk

This red-breasted nuthatch was very busy foraging among the spruce cones. He paused for just a second before heading off to another bunch of cones, and I think he has a spruce seed in his beak! #Birds #photography #wildlife 🪶

We're having a discussion about which interesting animal behaviour would be terrifying on a different species. The rules are a) it can't be an immediate danger to you b) it has to be so scary you would stop filming and leave. Feel free to play along. The current winner is vulture murmuration.
