Despite their common name, sea spiders (like this one) aren't actually spiders. They belong to their own group called Pycnogonida — distant relatives of spiders, scorpions, and horseshoe crabs! 📷 sudharsan_wary45 on iNaturalist 📍 India 🔗: www.inaturalist.org/observations... #ObservationOfTheDay

It’s unusual to see summer insects like praying mantis or monarch butterflies in November in the #PNW and yet, they are beginning to be a more common sight every year. I rescued this little one last weekend from my garden netting in my raised garden bed. #prayingmantis #insect #witchsky #pagansky

Yes I went back to the owl painting this morning and tweaked it because the owl needed more realism. The copper leaf drip on the left needed the mustard yellow green shade and more depth to give dimension. Is it ever finished - lol 🤞 #owls #artshare #cdnartshow #wildlifeart #owlpainting

Added more texture and realism to the owl and shadow to the abstract copper leafing on left side.

So here's my top tip for science fiction writers: don't try to predict the future, just go with the stupidest idea you can think of. It'll probably end up happening. Human progress is a narrow target to hit, but human stupidity might actually be infinite

Finished the art from yesterday! It was a challenge to colour her, but I think it turned out pretty well. She's a big fan of romance. 💜 Thanks for the love on the sketch!! ;; 💜💜 #art #traditionalart #bugs #sciart #inverts #the100dayproject #moth #bugsky #OC #ocsky #cuteart

A traditional art piece of an extremely fluffy rosy maple moth named Mist reading a romance novel. She's focused on the book, which has a full page illustration of two colourful anthro moths holding hands and unreadable text on the other page. She's smiling, and has a slight blush to her face.
Both of her pink front legs rest on the book, and her yellow-orange antennae are perked forwards excitedly. On her pink forehead is a yellow gem-like oval, the same colour as her fluffy mane and body. Her wings are predominantly pink, with purple and yellow markings giving them an eye-catching appearance. Overall, she looks relaxed and happy.

A close up of the same traditional art, showing her face and the book in more detail. The illustrated moths are loosely meant to resemble an Io moth and a harnessed tiger moth. Her eyes have heart-shaped eyeshine, though it's a bit messy looking since the paint bled somewhat.
