Good Afternoon Bluesky! I spotted a hummingbird while walking little Merlin. But alas, I didn't have my camera. So, here’s one from Texas, from deep in my archives. Hope your weekend is going well so far! #Canon 20D EF100-400 I L IS #photography #ECK #Birds

John Russel's 1797 Moon globe is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Made from original drawings, positions "accurately taken by a micrometer from moon itself." Science Museum Group has a great page with high-res pics. 🧵(1/6) collection.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/objects/co56... #histSTM 🗃️

Ask them why they’re there…and they’ll tell you it’s as a consequence of your decisions.” Watch this and you’ll see why nonsense articles in the flavour of the NZ media’s usual misogyny are starting to appear. Tamatha Paul is the kind of force that generates change - no wonder they’re terrified.
