Most interesting thing I found today by our dock in Tutka Bay, Alaska. Jellyfish tentacles. Photo from a microscope view. The red colored things on the right are coiled neumatocysts and the one on the left has been fired! Thx Kim Schuster for the help identifying these!!! #marinelife 🦑

Worm-like extension w tiny hairs all along edges. Also red coiled up strands within capsules

For those of you frustrated by the NBC ads on Peacock during Ice Dancing... watch the VENUE FEED. It doesn't cut out any of the skaters. Breaks only during ice cleaning or warmups. #olympics

Loving that the Skating Venue Feed has the skater's music front and center and loud enough to really feel the emotion with the performance! NBC's feed is great for commentary, but not for feeling a part of the experience #olympics

The only thing I wish I could simultaneously see during the skating events would be an overhead view. The cameras following the skater really make it hard to appreciate just how fast and far they travel during elements. #olympics

For anyone confused by costume choice of Ilia Malinin for his #Olympics short program, he is skating to music from Prince of Persia video game (specifically The Lost Crown). He looks like one of the characters in the game. I love the stories that the skaters weave with their outfits and performances

Get yourself a friend who will send you postcards of brightly colored bear scat, because she knows you, and only you, will adore it. @staycurious.bsky.social this makes my WEEK.

A postcard on a black background. The card has a rainbow selection of bear scats, from red at the top to purple at the bottom.
