The magic of Christmas Eve was another stunning male Atlas moth. My 5th Atlas of the week. Finding these magnificent magical moths means so much to me.

These are among my favorite moths and one of my favorite photos ever, is of one from last year. A focus stack of one resting along side a much smaller moth friend.

Io Moths, Automeris io, are another of the #Saturnidae. The males are bright yellow, the females darker, orange, sometimes even brown. #MacroPhotography #mothmas #Invertefest

Might actually be my favorite movie

She is just an elegant lady is looking for someone to kiss under the mistletoe. This festive facehugger is Bonita. ✨💙✨ . . #facehugger #xenomorph #fiberart #softsculpture #aliens

I need an octopus biologist who studies octos from this region to help me ID. I don't think it's Graneledone & to my untrained eyes Pareledone doesn't match either. The "horns" are throwing me. Hyper fixation here I come. @schmidtocean.bsky.social dive 885 #argentiniandeepseeps #MarineLife #CONICET

Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt

Man its like just so invasive and gross feeling to see "Edit Image" appear over other people's images. Musk decided to give us the only kind of gift he can for christmas, sickening disappointment. Best of luck out there folks.

End of the 2025 Pic,hoping to get new toys next year! (Top row stuff that I enjoy and bottom stuff purely deco:3) @hodge-podge.bsky.social @fantasygrove.bsky.social @strangebedfellas.bsky.social @kuduvoodoo.bsky.social @bardtoys.bsky.social @tentickletoys.bsky.social @ppsculptors.bsky.social

For further context twitter added a button that allows users to generate ai images using existing art posts from artists. It removes glaze and it basically reskins the artwork by using the existing work as a base. Twitter is no longer a safe space for art

Merry Christmas (tree worms!)🎄

TRILOBITE BEETLES!!! 😍🌿 Some of the coolest bugs in Asia’s rainforests are these female Lycid Beetles, that look like they’re from prehistoric ages!😱🦕 They retain their larval form as adults and feed on decaying matter in the leaf litter of the forest! 🍂 I get goosebumps every time I see them! 😁
