I was able to do a session on the advanced setting, so it looks like all levels are available on the free tier.

I saw that. I like the fact that it looks like you’re not tied to a path as in Duolingo. I also enjoyed the puzzle-like elements too. I’ll give it more time before I decide if I want to go Premium. 5 minutes ain’t a lot to go on 🤣

It’ll be a change from Duo, and I like the look and feel of it so far. I’m not sure if it’ll progress my Welsh any further, and I don’t need to start from beginner again, but I do like to dabble with other languages too.

I’d forgotten how much fun that app was. Annoying to only get 5mins, but I might cough up for the Premium as it’s on a decent sale right now. I’ve completed the cwrs Cymraeg on Duo and it’s repetitive now, so I need a new and fun way to keep my hand in 😅🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Hey there. I rarely check in here now so I nearly missed this, so thanks. I checked them out ages ago, so I’ll make sure to check again 😊

I know it was full of bots and Nazis, but this kind of post would've done serious numbers on Twitter. Can you folks help me share this with fellow nature / insect enthusiasts?

The very early stages of my drawing of a beetle’s head. It’s a vivid blue colour and I’ve started drawing in its bumpy texture using black.

Just for a change, I’ve decided to draw something really fucken challenging.

As I predicted, I've already missed a day of #arachtober 😅 Here's an underview of a marvelous Nephila Orb weaver from Malaysia. I think I posted another view of this individual the other day. Enjoy. #spider #macro #macrophotography

Day 4 of #arachtober sees us looking at a long-jawed orb weaver, Metellina sp, just doing what they do; hanging in their webs waiting for their grub to show up. @britishspiders.bsky.social #macro #macrophotography #spider #nature #naturephotography

Cheers Rob. I thought it made for a fun photo 😅

Today's #birdoftheday theme is 'ducks', so here's a security Mallard enforcing the rules at Slimbridge WWT. @robcrank68.bsky.social #bird #birds #birdphotography #naturephotography

"At the Duck Pond" by Henry John Yeend King (1855-1924) has been overlaid with yellow humorous text: induction: the act of inserting ducks deduction: the act of removing ducks reduction: replacing a worn out duck with another duck

The etymology checks out.

A baby platypus is called a puggle (or 'platypup' 😁)

And anytime you post a video like this one, someone always points out they have venomous spurs.

The adult males DO, but *only* the adult males!

Let's talk about the amazing venom cocktail produced by this adorable little beaver-duck.

Day 3 of #arachtober. I can't promise I'll keep this up all month; I'll run out of photos soon, but for now here's another Araneus diadematus to delight you. This was a nice, dark form, but yet again, it was facing the wrong way 🙄 @britishspiders.bsky.social #macro #omsystem #macrophotography

They really are full of character, aren’t they? ☺️

Cheers Rob. I’m happy to be amongst some fantastic photographers here ☺️

Good morning All.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay is any 'Goose/Geese' just because i watched the Original Top Gun last night, that's how random these themes can be
I have a Greylag, Canada & Tundra Bean Goose & Pink-footed Geese

Any of the Tit Bird Species as Alternative.

#birds #photography #EastCoastKin

This is my first #BirdOfTheDay post and today’s theme is #goose or #geese. I don’t have any shots of geeses, so here’s a lone, cocky greylag goose to feast your eyes upon ☺️ #birds #birdphotography #adar #aderyn #omsystem

Log-flipping season! 🍂 You’ll know the woodlice & centipedes under logs, but what about harvestmen? 🕷️ Discover the UK’s fascinating ground-dwelling species in our webinar with @megabunus.bsky.social, on 27 October.

#Arachtober rumbles on into its 2nd day and so I present to a male zebra jumping spider (Salticidae). Those huge jaws and pedi-palps tell you it's a male. Cracking wee spoods 🥰 @britishspiders.bsky.social #macro #macrophoto #spider #photography #arachnid #macrophotography #omsystem

So, I'm told it's #arachtober, yes, that's a thing apparently, so who am I to turn my nose up at that, eh? This Araneus diadematus is clearly coming for you so I would like and scroll on, stat! 🏃🏼💨 @britishspiders.bsky.social #macro #macrophotography #spider #spiders #naturephotography #omsystem

I’m not usually a bird photographer, but I can rarely resist a Starling. They really are quite beautiful birds 🥰 Remarkable mimics too 💚 #birds #birdphotography #wildlifephotography #starling #birdsofbluesky #narure

From Britannica, three bees in a diagram, showing worker, queen and drone shown from above. They're all winged, yellow with black abdomens, but there are subtle differences in shape and size.

Honeybees are the very model of a modern minute monarchy.

There's a female queen & her male consorts (drones) & the teeming masses of workers, who are sterile but anatomically & genetically female.

Have you ever wondered how that happens, how it's maintained?

Let's talk about it!

Foto 0.10.29 is now available for everyone! This update adds the ability to scroll through your photos & post to Foto from the share sheet. This is the little square with the up arrow. Previously, you could only upload by going to Foto & creating a new post & then scrolling through all your photos.

This tiny longhorn beetle (~4 - 5mm) was a proper sod to photograph. It was in a difficult spot and I had to shoot from the rear screen of my camera, guessing the shot was in focus 😅 Anyway, enjoy this Greater Thorn-tipped longhorn 😊 #macro #macrophotography #beetle #nature #wildlifephotography

Another day another wrong way up spider, this time Araneus diadematus. This one was in the process of building her web 🕸️ #macro #macrophoto #spider @britishspiders.bsky.social

A splendid Forest shield bug (Pentatoma rufipes) patiently posing for their portrait on a small post in Penllergare Woodland Park, Swansea. Cheers dude 🥰 #macro #macrophoto #macrophotography #insect #insects #nature #bugs #cymru #bywydgwyllt

😂 Bravo, blue sticker putting person.
