An illustration of the character 山田真緑 (Midori Yamada) from イキヅライブ！ LOVELIVE! BLUEBIRD (Ikizu Live! LOVE LIVE! BLUEBIRD). There are three chibi versions of her, in the top left corner she is wearing her casual outfit and is holding her pet, in the top right corner she is wearing her idol outfit from the song "What is my LIFE?" and is posing in the air and at the bottom she is wearing the same idol outfit and is stroking her pet. She is surrounded by plants, a recycling can, a paper cup with a paper straw in it, an energy efficient light source, a paper bag and a reusable water bottle.

As we see the value of science being attacked, it is the duty of all of us to make natural history observations and share them with others. The great thing is, you don’t even have to be a scientist to do it. Can you #FindThatLizard?

Periodic reminder that bird-watching is an accessible, approachable, and calming hobby to have (there's scientific research in support of this!). And I recommend quieting that "don't write in books" voice in your head to keep notes in at least one bird book (you can get them used for <$10!):

watching and sharing it, talking about how much you enjoyed it, doing fanart, etc! stuff a lot of you have been doing already! i'm currently talking to a few studios and the numbers and comments are all tangible things i can use as leverage to show that this is something people want to see made 🌟

I brought my binoculars with me today since the weather is nice, and there have been a lot of birds hanging around my mom's workplace so I could do some birdwatching after class that way I'm not just sitting in my mom's office the whole time.

Walked several miles and poked through countless patches of brush and swamp grasses today to find one (1) tiny Chalcoscirtus diminutus lad because I was at a new spot and knew they had to be out there because the habitat was right. He did not disappoint 🖤 #EmotionalSupportSpood

Trogonoptera brookiana, Rajah Brooke’s Birdwing. Malaysia’s national butterfly is quite a thing of beauty. Its black wings with emerald green feather-like markings, bright red head, and blue wing accents isn’t even its most remarkable feature. It’s probably the fact that it measures close to 15 cm

Came here for snow geese, had the best marsh wren shoot of my life. A half a dozen birds who didn't get the memo they aren't suppose to perch up and scream at my car 15 feet away. Giving up on the snow geese to find some short eared owls. It's a bad idea, but it's not the worst idea I've ever had 🪶

There are so many beautiful birds today at my backyard feeder! Mostly Bluebirds, but I believe that in the second picture is a Yellow-rumped Warbler! I also saw a Red-headed Woodpecker but I wasn't able to get a picture of them.

Good morning, take this bird! photo by me

Portrait oriented photo -- blue flinty sky behind a diagonal tangle of branches (upper right to lower left), and roughly in the center of that branch-tangle sits a proud-looking little bird (or "birb"). It is a rounded soft orb of a bird, basically a golf ball covered in downy feathers. The bird has tiny dark eyes, a little short sharp beak, and the hint of a golden-and-black stripe upon its inquisitive brow. It's a golden-crowned kinglet, of course, an itty-bitty mouse of a bird who hops frenetically from branch to branch via what can only be described as TELEPORTATION, thus making them impossible to photograph. I'm not even sure I photographed this one, or if it took a selfie with my camera and handed it back. Anyway. Cool bird. Photo by me, Chuck Wendig

At my favorite park for some reason there's a pipe outputting water from the main lake right now. I don't know if it's related to construction, the park is closed Monday through Friday right now , or just overflow but it's given a lot of exciting bird content. 🪶🧵

I am so glad I changed my my major last year from an art major to a science major. I still love art, but I have been so much more focused and driven working towards a science degree. It has been one of the best decisions I have ever made for myself.

I was laid off this morning from USFWS as part of the sweeping DOGE cuts to probationary employees across the Dept. of Interior. To say I'm devastated doesn't even scratch the surface-I'm losing my dream job working with pallid sturgeon on the Missouri River. Solidarity with all my fed workers. 💔🐟

One of my favorite lizard facts is that some species, like the Chihuahuan spotted whiptail, Aspidoscelis exsanguis, are parthenogenic. Parthenogenesis is a form of reproduction where the females reproduce asexually. Their offspring are clones of themselves. 🦎 #valentinesday
