Are you interested in #dinosaurs, or in prehistoric animals, fossils, palaeoart, and the natural world in general? You really must attend #DinoCon 2026, happening July 25th-26th at Hilton Birmingham Metropole - a huge event with tons happening. Here are scenes from DinoCon 2025...

Testing out it out, looks good. I can finally get to finishing this up. Very pleased with how it’s turning out even though it was a bit more difficult than the flying crocodile mobile

But in the end I signed more books than clothing! The gorgeous Japanese editions of The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs & The Rise and Reign of the Mammals!

A single mushroom can release 3 BLLION spores a day at a rate of 30,000 PER SECOND. A single giant puffball can produce 7 TRILLION spores in its lifetime. Each year, fungi collectively produce 50 million TONS of them, enough to coat every square mm of Earth with 1,000 spores. Let's talk about it.

Last Wednesday of the month is #TerribleLizards day and here's the latest episode where @iszi.com and I interview the all-round crocodylian supremo Chris Brochu about his research on these amazing animals (both living and ancient) terriblelizards.libsyn.com/s12e03-crocs

A Leeds man has donated an ancient coin given to him by his grandfather -- who found it in a pile of bus fare in the 1950s. 🧪🏺

Can someone take Netflix’s #dinosaurs scrub the very, very slow Morgan Freeman voiceover that says nothing and still manages to be repetitive and replace it with an intelligent commentary explaining things in detail? #paleontology, #palaeontology, #fossils .

Often try and work out why I just cannot seem to get into TV series anymore. It’s easy to think I‘m just getting old. But there I am, watching #Monarch Legacy of Monsters, whooping like a 15 year old at Kirk Russell, living his best life, in a speedboat, with a baby monster wrapped in a towel.

The man on the Clapham omnibus just got off. muttering that he had no idea what was happening anymore, so for heaven's sake don't ask him.

I am in this photo and I don’t like it.

Yay, Monarch Legacy of Monsters is back for a new season. It’s pretty much the only fiction TV program that I’ve got past a couple of episodes of in a while.

🚨BREAKING🚨 Robert Jenrick has defected from Reform to the Greens.

Apparently you can get a Gideon Mantell Toby Jug. #paleontology #palaeontology #fossils shop.harveys.org.uk/products/gid...

Say hi to Damon, Perry, Piper and Sally! All from my new plush series Yuri&Friends 2, they´re all now waiting for new homes now in my shop 🦖 therbisstudio.com

A curse on you Microsoft unto the 95th generation, may you have perpetual toe sores and be doomed to spend the afterlife failing to format a recalcitrant table in Word while it continually asks you to summarise it with copilot.

Okay, since I’m in a mood, do you know what is annoying mild *annoyance* about all this, rather than a gut-wrenching crisis? I’m not a Christian but my sense of fairness keeps requiring me to defend the church because people keep posting shit about “Why aren’t Christians speaking up?!”

Probably worth repeatedly getting water in my boots as I failed to outrun the waves on Charmouth beach today. It was wild out there. #fossil #jurrasic #fossilfriday #ammonite

I'm not kidding when I say that #DinoConUK 2025 was the gigantic, immersive, inclusive, fun event I hoped it would be. If you like #dinosaurs we want you to be part of it too :) Join us for 2026.

I’m sure this counts as #paleoart From the wonderful: theideaoforder.com #dinosaur #velociraptor

This is a truth not truly appreciated until you are in ownership of a large and mostly feral horse In an area with heavy clay soil.

I shared this a year ago and it’s become even more prescient. youtube.com/shorts/hL9pl...

In this week's #FossilFiles podcast, @fossilrob.bsky.social and I talk DINOSAUR SEX and giggle childishly. Listen here: fossils.libsyn.com/20-back-brea... or wherever you get your podcasts

All time classic.

I thought I'd try something new with the background for this kestrel drawing - what do you think?

Good intentions.

If they made me stick to the I’d end up going and fucking eating JFK. ‘Eat Real Food’ is a feminist issue. realfood.gov

Reminder that #DinoConUK venue info is up NOW, and we're accepting vendor applications AND hotel places (do not wait to the last minute!). Tickets are not YET on sale but things are coming together. Our 2025 meeting in Exeter was huge, we expect Birmingham 2026 to be bigger! www.dinocon.co.uk

And it’s off! USPS has your order 🚚 Haven’t ordered from the US in years, but couldn’t resist a tiny bit of #paleoart. A whole adventure. Will it arrive, how long will it take, will they double the cost by sticking random charges and a tenner to collect them on this end? We will see - eventually.

I think the biggest problem we have in our politics is that voters don’t understand how bloody complicated things are and unintended consequence/unknown unknowns. We somehow need to teach this ar school but that is even more bloody complicated.

I was finishing rewatching Prehistoric planet last night and got recommended Monarch, Legacy of Monsters, which I am really enjoying in my cynical old age. Please do not tell me of it goes downhill, you’ll break my old lady heart. www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/monarch_l...

I updated this. I suspect we’ll be needing it.

Interesting #tree. I though for a minute it had baubles hung on it but it’s the weeds.
