The Center today filed a 671-page notice of intent to sue federal agencies to end chronic, multi-year, and often severe damage from cattle grazing to almost all of the streamside critical habitat for endangered species on the Tonto National Forest. biologicaldiversity.org/w/news/press...

I missed this beautiful Pectoral Sandpiper on my 300 year bird effort, but managed to find it this year during fall migration! 📷🌿🪶

Sprinbok Wanted to try to mix painting and drawing in this painting. I have done this before with other works and I always really enjoy how they both look together #Sciart #art #digital #digitalart #Springbok #mammal #animalart #wildlife #wildlifeart #myart #artnwill

Here are a collection of some older drawings I did in 2021/22. The first is of an Amazonian Poison Dart Frog, the second is of a Fire-Bellied Toad, and the third is unfinished tree frog studies done digitally. #art #watercolor #digital #frog #dartfrog #toad #firebelliedtoad #amphibians #herps

I was commissioned to illustrate some bookmarks for @scifri.bsky.social book club earlier this year! I had so much fun making these colourful designs! 😁 #illustration #digitalArt #hireAnIllustrator

Wahoo my standees arrived!

Hey everybody! @drjuliawester.bsky.social and I have a new paper! We surveyed over 800 scientists, science communicators, and science educators who use social media. Conclusion: Scientists no longer find Twitter useful or pleasant, and many have switched to Bluesky! 🧪🌎🦑 doi.org/10.1093/icb/...

The #BBNJ Agreement aims to protect biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction, but ocean health needs urgent action now. States must: • Protect seamounts & VMEs from bottom-impact fishing • Support a deep-sea mining moratorium at the ISA. #DefendTheDeep #ProtectSeamounts #StopTheMachines

A couple of days ago I ran into this huge Mantis (Stagomantis sp)which had just captured a large Bush Cicada (Megatibicen dorsatus) Such a cool encounter… although I felt sorry for the beautiful cicada #insects #wildlife

🐸Green and black poison dart frog (Dendrobates auratus). Max. size 4.2cm (1.7"). Females are slightly larger than males. Found in Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Colombia. Males fight for territories during mating season. Considered Least Concern by the IUCN. 📷by Jean Paul Montanaro on Pexels

🧵 1/2 Aquatic Coral Snake (Micrurus surinamensis) from NE Peru. Their primary diet is fish, so these snakes are most often found along the banks of shallow streams in the rainforest at night. These elapid snakes are dangerously venomous. #herps #snakes #NaturePhotography 🌿

Restocked the science library with a bunch of insect conservation material thanks to @xercessociety.bsky.social that I picked up at @acadnatsci.bsky.social’s Bugfest yesterday!

Clues to an ocean journey: the underside of this driftwood log is covered with pelagic, “stalked” gooseneck barnacles. They live their entire lives offshore, attaching as adults to floating objects. A dense aggregation like this would likely take months to form. #Lepas #MarineLife #Invertebrate 🌊🦑

For an assignment to show a “special view” of a natural process and in this case, I wanted to show an implied lifecycle of Leucochloridium variae as it cycles between two hosts: a black-and-white warbler and amber oval snails #gouache #Sciart

River Otters came racing down some grass and sand into the lagoon in my neighborhood several days ago. There was a mom and 3 cubs and they swam and ran around for several minutes before returning to San Francisco Bay. 📷 #nature #videos #eastcoastkin

Those endless waves of seagrass that cover the California coast might appear unremarkable—but they’re bastions of biodiversity that have both supported Indigenous culture and flourished under Native stewardship for centuries.

I did the top illustration to show why the Zebra Shark (Stegostoma tigrinum) got its name. But, as the sharks get older, their appearance is more like a leopard as in my bottom illustration. 🦈🤙 #shark #AnimalArtTuesday #marinelife #sciart #animal #animalart #nature #fish #fishart #ArtYear #art

After a decade of devastation — and a decade of research — ecologists have finally identified what seems to be causing sea star wasting disease.
