The swallows have returned in large numbers this week. Such beautiful birds. @manelcamacho.bsky.social

The dominant color in the garden this week. Spring is an opportunity for the mind. #spring #iris 🌱 💙

A beautiful visitor while gardening : a female Calopteryx virgo.

In the pond of our garden, a happy frog again, this time croaking, in video. 🐸

The Euphorbia myrsinites is a feast for some polistes. ☀️ 🐝 🌸

We have some very happy (and very noisy) frogs in the pond. And hundreds of tadpoles. ☀️ 🐸

Spring starts here when my Euphorbia myrsinites is in bloom. Lush greens 💚

Happy 216th birthday to Charles Darwin ! 🎂🎉

Never heard of this optical phenomena before. I wonder what people in the past would have made of that burst of reflected sun rays.

📹 I offer you few seconds of peacefulness, far away from the world craziness. I so enjoy living where we are. South West of France. 💙 🦋 🏞️ 🦢

I'm exhausted and this feels like the best option for #FossilFriday this week. This is coprolite. What is coprolite, you ask? It's fossilized feces. It's mineralized, doesn't smell. It's important for science to find pollen or pieces of bone. Also proves you can polish a turd.

My first #FossilFriday post! Here is a nice piece of petrified wood I found in the river that originates in our village. Two more photos 👇🧵

We all need some mušēṣi lemnūti good boys right now.

A. Hitler toppled the German democracy in only 53 days after taking office (Jan. 30th, 1933). Mass deportations started with political opponents to the first and newly built Dachau concentration camp, officially announced by H. Himmler on March 20th, 1933. No one was taken by surprise. 🇺🇸

A dog’s paw print on a Roman clay tile 🐾🐕 😍 This imprint was made about 2,000 years ago, when a dog walked across the wet clay tile as it lay out to dry before firing. Perhaps not such a good boy?😂 Richborough Roman fort 📷 by me #TilesonTuesday #Archaeology

After medically transitioning as #MTF I find myself mostly branded a #trans #scientist & my work brushed aside as #DEI, despite 30+ years as a volcanologist, oceanographer, data scientist, science communicator, & professor at leading universities.

Just had a sample of the Eaton Fire ash that is in my driveway run on the department XRF. Is there titanium (new house paint)? Yup. Lead (old house paint)? You betcha. Heavy metals? Check. Treat that ash like it's toxic folks (because it is)

Mer de Glace 2007 | 2024 The largest french glacier has lost ~95 m in thickness during this period at 1700 m asl! 😱 This is called collapse! Webcam: Cie du Mt Blanc (@MONTBLANC_NR) Archiving: J-M Friedt and @IGE_Grenoble Credit: EarthBreath Data: glacioclim.osug.fr/Donnees-des-...

In 2018, @blkahn.bsky.social said that the warming stripes graphic 'belongs in a damn museum', even suggesting that it was 'fit for the Museum of Modern Art' (see gizmodo.com/this-climate...). Well... Later this month, they will appear in the Museum of Modern Art: press.moma.org/exhibition/p...

If you stop and think of it, if Ukraine had joined NATO, it wouldn't be occupying part of Russia right now. I remain a master strategist.

Exciting to see such a comprehensive analysis of (v. hard to collect!) data on mountain permafrost! The authors show that during 2013–2022, permafrost in Europe's mountains warmed by more than 1 °C per decade in several places, matching the rates of Arctic lowlands. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

It was another stunning year for global climate and weather extremes. As data is processed and released in the first two weeks of January, you are going to be hearing all about these new historical records. Apologies for my many graphs in advance! 😬 Spiral below produced by svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/5190

Tonight, watch the sky! It’s offering us, on New Year’s Day, an aurora borealis. Right now, from South West of France. Waiting for the street lighting to be off. #aurora #auroraborealis #northenlights 📷 🔭🌄

At home, from my quiet space where I feel safe, I wish you all the best for 2025. Knowledge, understanding, tolerance, peace, respect, wisdom for the sake of all of us, of our common and fragile home, Earth. #newyear #booksky #skybooks #books #knowledge #wisdom 📚 🕊️ 🌍

A cellular Christmas tree made from molten copper drops. Splats of copper sometimes happen when welding and they often take the shape of different cell types. I collect these off my shop floor because they look cool…….and yes, they make my sciency senses tingle! Merry Christmas! #SciArt

Next year my dear husband @dominicelvin.bsky.social will like my ASDs even more ! Next focus will be on our water consumption. A 35% decrease in volume is a reasonable goal. 💦🌍⚡️ #ASD #Autism #Asperger

Time for some of my photo projects. 2009 - a photo of me with a robot head I made in 2000 inside a circuitry cube set. Photographed by my amazing photographer husband @stephfr.bsky.social (a series of four) for Futur Fusion exhibition in 2011. I love this one a lot #Photography #Futuristic #Cyborg

I’m back on Bluesky ! After six months away from the world, the infernal noise in my head has dissipated and the anxiety is in a deep sleep. I’ve never felt so good. Catch up time with you all !

@manelcamacho.bsky.social Happy birthday Manu !🎂 xx
