Spotted Congo Pufferfish as requested by my husband 😊 #SundayFishSketch

A bit late to the party, but I was on German Radio a little while back, discussing some of the work I am doing investigating animal sentience and pain in crickets 🦗 Here is a link if you are interested in having a listen! www.deutschlandfunk.de/made-im-schm...

Here's another weird fish I love for #SundayFishSketch- the Ocean Sunfish! 🌞🐟 I've never been able to see them in the wild, though I did get to see one up close at the Lisbon Oceanarium on a conference excursion- it made my day! 😄 They are so derpy- I love it! 😍 I so want to study them one day!!

It's been a while, but here's a watercolour for #SundayFishSketch 😀 I chose the harlequin rasbora fish, a throwback to my early days in fishkeeping! I had one called Bobby and he was such a character ❤️

Quick watercolour of a Platy for #SundayFishSketch 🎨🐟 I used to own Platies as a child, so this was a nostalgic one for me!

Today's #SundayFishSketch is dedicated to my two black ghost knifefish, Garnet & Amethyst! ❤️ They were so tiny when I first got them, but they became such beautiful giants! They even featured on the BBC in 2019 🤩 I used coloured pencil & watercolour for this piece 🎨

As someone who has spent much time studying freshwater fish, it saddens me that freshwater environments are often overlooked. These environments are incredibly biodiverse yet are inadequately protected. Let's hope change comes soon. theconversation.com/a-quarter-of...

Just 1 teaspoon of neonicotinoids can kill 1.25 BILLION bees. Yesterday, over 1 million voices told the UK Government: stop allowing banned pesticides in our countryside. DEFRA, it’s time to end ‘emergency’ use. Protect pollinators vital to nature's recovery & our food security.

Thought provoking article discussing some of the work I'm currently involved in :) www.newyorker.com/culture/anna...

Tomorrow, I'm going to be on the radio talking about crickets! 🦗Expect to hear a blooper of when one escaped during recording! 😂 www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Hello everyone! Looking forward to sharing more of my science and art with you :D
