I feel like I'm cheating, but this, and one more of the same, are the only 2 images I have captured of multiple species in one shot.🪶

A pair of Pomeranian geese pose for me at Virginia Lake in Reno, NV, while dozens upon dozens of a handful of other birb species can be seen in the lake in the background. Gulls, mostly.

Surprise! The Lucy Spacecraft flew by the asteroid Dinkinesh and found it's actually two asteroids. The team's best guess is that the larger one is about 0.5 miles (790 m) at its widest, while the smaller one is about 0.15 miles (220 m) wide. 🔭 www.nasa.gov/image-articl...

Lots of people know that prehistoric sea turtles got big, but it can be easy to underestimate just how huge these things got. The largest verified specimen of a modern Leatherback turtle weighed in at 1,433 lbs, but this Archelon would have been closer to 11,300 lbs. #scicomm #paleosky #paleontology

Did you think hermit crabs always live in snail shells? 🧪🦀 Some deep sea hermit species live symbiotically with anemones that DISSOLVE the shell and SECRETE a new one ("carcinoecium") made of chitin! The carcinoecium has evolved at least 3 times! Photo credits in alt text. @megdaly.bsky.social

Hermit crab (Pagurus prideaux) on the substrate looking up at you. Instead of a shell it is covered in an orange anemone (Calliactis palliata) with pink spots. Coming off that are neon pink silly strings, which are the anemone's tentacles!

4 different views of the carcinoecium produced by the anemone Stylobates aeneus, which look exactly like a snail shell. But they are not.
