April 25 is #WorldPenguinDay so enjoy some Adélie penguins! ⠀ This handsome couple, two Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae), common to all the Antarctic coasts, are hand printed in black ink with a hint of orange on white Japanese paper. 🧵1/2

Happy birthday to #mathematician Felix Klein (1849-1925). 🧪🐡🧮 This is a hand-carved and hand-printed image of the famous mathematical object, the Klein bottle. First described by mathematician Felix Klein in 1882, this object has a single surface, rather like a 3D version of a Möbius strip. 🧵

Happy birthday to Zofia Keilan-Jaworowska (1925-2015) a Polish #paleobiologist famous for a series of Polish-Mongolian expeditions she lead from 1963-1971 to the Gobi desert! 🐡🧪👩🏼‍🔬 #histsci There she discovered dinosaurs including the Deinocheirus, plus she & team found the “Fighting Dinosaurs” fossil

It's officially #InverteFest in the west! We want to see your bugs! Get outside for an invertebrate scavenger hunt. Introduce us to the spider in your basement. Paint a polychaete worm. Write a song about a giant isopod. Whatever you do, we want you to share it with us using #InverteFest

It’s #InverteFest again! 🧪🐡🦋So here is my bee (and other pollinator) propaganda for Manufactured Ecosystems. Thinking about the future of pollination and seeking solutions from technological and nature-based knowledge. This is essentially my conclusion: we can aid our beleaguered pollinators 🧵

Here we go ! #Invertefest Oedipoda germanica aka red-winged grasshopper. Gouache and indian ink on CA grain Canson 90g 🐡

On a marine geophysics cruise offshore Chile, I was attacked by an unknown spiny translucent marine invertebrate which looked like a wonton crossed with a pincushion. I was the only member of our team with hands small enough to remove the cap from our controlled source electromagnetic dipole 🧵
