Forget King Kong, forget Spinosaurus. In honor of the 120th anniversary of the naming of Tyrannosaurus rex...we’re going to bash our cheap plastic dinosaur toys together and talk about a fight between T. rex and Triceratops.

Painted Turtle catching some rays on a warm October day.

Bag of black walnuts, smashing stones and pot.

One smashed walnut.

Pot full of separated walnut hulls.

Pot of walnut hulls in water simmering outside.

Black walnut dye, in-progress! I gathered about 60 and took my smashing rocks to them, (easier to crack), discarded the nuts (our squirrels will be happy) and am simmering the hulls in about 1.25 gallons of water for about 5 hours and soak overnight. Figuring out what I will dye later! 🌱🎨

LoL I love nerds in sciences

A small brown turtle with a yellow face and upturned snout rests on a submerged branch in murky water.

This White-lipped Mud Turtle (Kinosternon leucostomum) was enjoying a bit of sunbathing this morning in the wetland at @tapirvalley.bsky.social #CostaRica

Make it a point to bring my DSLR to work sites in case something like this occurs. Spotted this Barred owl as we were leaving.

Phidippus cardinalis boys appear to be velvet ant mimics. It works for them. ❤️

Red headed Merganser, aka Fish Duck. Not loathed to the point of a cormorant....although they feed on pretty much the same thing. This photo came together thanks to building a hiding place and not immediately photographing. Let some nice shots pass by to ensure the subject were settled in.

Great exhibition, closing soon ! A lot of effort was put into this project ! Here are some pictures from my visit some time ago :

Social media on 1st October:

A portfolio case with an ornate design made of porcupine quills, including the traditional Mi’kmaw star design.

A portfolio or envelope case made of birchbark and dyed porcupine quills by a talented Mi’kmaw artist around c.1910 and featuring the traditional 8-pointed star— I love this object. Relatedly, it‘s Mi’kmaq Treaty Day!

Here’s my process, to keep it quick I basically didn’t do any exploration and just executed my first idea 🦭

I drew a miner 😔

Entering the fall season and as the water temp drops we can expect Salmon to begin their migrations here in Lake Huron. Salmon were introduced to the Great Lakes ecosystem to provide anglers.....more competitive sporting fish and provide stock for netting as trout populations had collapsed.

I started tracking the TRC's Calls to Action in 2016 and, since Eva Jewell and I stopped writing annual reports in 2023 out of despair, things have only become more bleak.

No meaningful structural changes have been made. They were never even attempted.
