Day 24 of my 100-day #insect/ #arthropod drawings. Why do so many beetles look like they’re in an awkward tween phase? 🐞🕷️

Ladybird at Testwood Lakes today #Bugsky #UKWildlife

From Private Eye March 2024 It's been pretty relentless couple of years. In fact, I'd happily rewrite the last decade.

Mar 15th 1973 - George McFly was honored (new timeline). In the alt Biff Almanac timeline, his murder was reported. I wonder what the original pre-time travel headline was? 🤔 📽️📅 Back to the Future Part II (1989)

I usually think of the Crested Kingfisher as a wary bird, but this was the first time I managed to photograph one from this close 😊🪶 オレ史上最接近‼️ #nature #photography #animals #wildlife #CrestedKingfisher #ヤマセミ #birds #野鳥

Eigentleg passande at Suhrkamp annonserer dette her på Bluesky, som på ein måte held det utopiske idealet om tvangsfri kommunikasjon levande.

This picture popped up in the phone memories today. Mmm, pie. Happy #PiDay. 🍄📷🌿🌱🍂🍁

It's #PiDay. We have pies.

We like trees. #BlueSkyArtShow #Horizontal

Stop right there. #HotStickSaturday

My books cartoon for this week’s @theguardian.com

#fabulamurina (mouse story) 493 murus anticus cavi renovatus est (The front wall of the mousehole has been renewed). Silvius sonum tintinnabuli et pulsationis audit, et ianuam aperit (Silvius hears the sound of the bell and of knocking, and he opens the door). salve tata! (Hello, Daddy!)

Blossom in today's lovely sunshine... #spring

Mr Maevia intermedia, a handsome pale blue-grey leggy boy found in our savannahs. Shy, and very likely they see you much more than you see them #EmotionalSupportSpood

As we inch closer to the warmer months, I feel a tingling in my shutter finger. My macro lens winks at me and my eyes twitch at tiny moments in the bush. I love the cosmos, but I'm yearning for the microcosm... #macro #beetle #flower ##natureconnection #twitchyfingers #yearning #bushfun

We have 3 rescue parrots who run our house. Dim lighting and a small space, but I’ve been trying to get flight photos of them, and had yet to get any of Adobe, our green-cheeked conure. He’s small, fast and just explodes into flight. But finally! Here’s Adobe heading to a new spot to sit! #Birds 🪶

I posted a side profile of this greylag goose earlier in the week but I think this is a much better image for today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme of #GreyDay chosen by @alan678.bsky.social taken in Norfolk on a grey day last Sunday… #birds #photography #EastCoastKin #ukbirds

Good morning, Buenos dias , bonjour #birdOftheday Yesterday caught this I believe Tekla lark in Mijas( Spain) , I guess busy picking up nest material. #greyday #grayday #spain #andalousia #BirdsSeenIn2026 #birdsoftheworld #birdphotography #photographersunited #birdpins #oiseaux #aves #saturday

A sandhill crane preening its feathers for the #birdoftheday theme of #greyday. #birds #crane #sandhillcrane #abstract #protectnature #preening #wildlife #EastCoastKin

Today's #birdoftheday set by @alan678.bsky.social is #GreyDay with alt #Abstract. I love the abstract nature of this shag, photographed against a very bright sparkling sea. The autofocus made 'marching ants' bokeh around the bird. #EastCoastKin #ArtYear #AlphabetChallenge #WeekJforJuxtaposition

There's this set of Gashapon models of bioluminescent fungi that actually glow in the dark, so I obviously had to get them! #FungiFriends

This one's a light-hearted Miller story told from Foggy Nelson's point of view. He's in way over his head, and oblivious to Daredevil repeatedly saving his arse. #TopShelfFriday #comics

Kaptein Hastings er kanskje ikke den salteste nøtta i posen, men han har sine øyeblikk.

I may not be cute like those ducks chicks but I am ......interesting. Black-browed Albatros Chick sitting on its nest with a white sea behind. Canon R5 472mm f/7.1 1:8000s ISO800 #BirdOfTheDay #HeadShots #birds #BirdsSeenIn2026 #FalklandIslands #EastCoastKin #SensoryArt #Animals #ArtYear

There's something about flycatchers that are challenging to draw, but I finally figured it out - Great Crested Flycatcher #birds #SciArt

Barred Owl came to visit, calling in the wee hours & staying for a photo op 🪶

Curious little guy #gecko

Entering the weekend like the plant-people did back in 1668: focused, a bit anxious, and however still moving. #skystorians

#FungiFriday with a #throwback to October and one of my favourite fly agaric photos I took. Love these fairy tale #mushrooms #fungi #vitaminN

Happy #FungiFriday! 🍄📷🌿🌱🍂🍁

nå er det leggetid

An unusual panel on this 16th century binding, possibly Swiss? It covers Martin Bucer's Du royaume de Jesus Christ nostre saveur printed in Geneva in 1558 #Bindings

This is part of a thread: it describes a cuneiform tablet where one friend asks another why he's feeling sad; somehow it is comforting to know that humans have always grappled with these feelings and found them important enough to write down. The entire thread is quite interesting!

For første gang hadde 8. mars-toget i Stavanger en transinkluderende parole med i det offisielle programmet.

One for #WildflowerHour challenge: #SignsOfSpring The blooms of Goat Willow (Salix caprea) is my star choice; they were providing much needed food for many different pollinators that had emerged in the warm weather! 🌿📷 #Photography #NativePlants #Stunday #Invert #bees #MacroMonday #EastCoastKin
