Great to see the relaxed mowing regime on campus attracting plenty of insects. The knapweed was buzzing with bees and hoverflies. Super happy to see this interesting fly (the bees probably less so!)

🧩Human modification does not always lead to a biotic homogenisation. Using a scenario-based approach, we found that beta diversity increased despite reductions in local alpha diversity, thereby maintaining gamma diversity, when relatively natural landscapes were modified into mixed landscapes.

The Greatest Extinction Event in 66 Million Years? Contextualising Anthropogenic Extinctions
Species and ecosystems are changing rapidly in response to human actions, but how does this compare with the deeper past? We review and compare the current extinction event to those over the last 66 ...

I often see this cat sat here on my way to work. Seems an odd spot but I think I’ve figured it out. The cabinet kicks out a fair amount of heat. Is this an example of individuals adjusting their behaviour to microclimatic conditions?
