The Mothbox fundraiser is here! I made scripts to visualize @mothbox.bsky.social data in fun ways! We can use a dataset collected from any particular night to generate neat patterns that can then easily be turned into super cool MOTH FASHION! mothbox.printify.me/products (Repost: flagged)

This batch represents all the insects we saw on September 3rd, 2024 on a trip to Mt. Totumas in Panama! We make about $9-$12 per item and will use the money to do more Mothbox development and biodiversity research! Maybe we can raise enough money to donate a Mothbox somewhere!

Hahaha the Moth bathing suit and Moth Boxers (Moxers) were too racy for bluesky!

Doing a fun quick vertical transect of insect biodiversity with the #Mothbox on a canopy tower in Panama. (Btw the moth shirts are actually a dataset from a full night's captures! We will be doing a fundraiser with them shortly!)

Hey Lepidoptera folks, here’s a Starter Pack of Lepidopterologists! If you want to be added (or removed), just @ me with your favourite: #buttetflies? #moths? go.bsky.app/U3HPgpW

Me and @briannaljohns.bsky.social retrieved some #mothbox es today from a canopy tower experiment here in Panamá, and happened to be wearing our matching "Gathering for Open Science Hardware" shirts! @mothbox.bsky.social

Fun fact: sloths hate white supremacists!
