A little black-capped chickadee glances down over its left shoulder and shows of the frost crystals that have formed on its eyebrow and nostril feathers on a frigid morning.

A little black-capped chickadee sits puffed up on a metal hook with frosty eyebrow and nostril feathers on a frigid morning.

Frosty faces on the chickadees today. These tiny birds maintain a body temperature of 40C - that's a 70C gradient across only a few centimeters from the outside air to the bird's core! These little guys blow my mind. #birds 🌿

A path through lush green grass extends to a flat horizon under cloudy skies.

Handsome grey bird with white belly perched in profile on a wire fence. Eastern Kingbird.

Four little ground squirrels standing among green grass and yellow flowers around the opening to their burrow.

Dark brown butterfly with orange patches and embedded brown spots at the edges of its wings. It is perched on a blade of grass. This is a Common Alpine.

A little flashback to a June 22 on this frigid January 22 #birds #invertebrates #mammales 🌿

Re: Artemis.
I don't care about Moon missions. I don't care about Mars missions. I care about tackling climate change and safeguarding the future for our species and global ecology. The priorities of government funding bodies are incomprehensible to me.

Natee’s work is so exquisite. And tiny.

The Trump administration says it will dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research, a cornerstone for American climate and weather science. I went on NPR today to explain what this could mean for climate research.

Listen here:

Save NCAR from being dismantled today! The Trump Administration has vowed to dissolve the center that provides critical extreme weather and climate data for our nation.

If you are in the US and you would like to send a message to your elected representative about the proposed dissolution of the National Center for Atmospheric Research, @agu.org makes it easy with a template here: agu.quorum.us/campaign/151... #AGU25

Some people on BlueSky are very upset at me for posting this. They're claiming it's all sensationalist lies, and that I'm trying to make trans people scared. That's really upsetting because everything I said below is true. Labour is trying to ban us from all single-sex spaces, this is a fact.

Look at how cute these puteketeke/Australasian crested grebes I saw today are!!!

YouTube video by GeoDuck GeoScience The Science Communicator Who Broke My Brain

New Video is UP! In it we discuss a science communicator who kinda gets everything wrong... a lot.

New video drops tomorrow morning.

Please. If you can't *clearly* say that *israel's* genocide is bad this late in 2025 then what is even the point of this sort of thing?

CN: racism

Frustrating that you were given, & are given criticism here & yet, that title..

Please listen to the American Indigenous people you are talking about here, they're trying to correct you.

why is the labour government allowing far right anti-trans groups like 'sex matters' and 'lgb alliance' to dictate policy?

Am I really making an entire video in a maid outfit?
Yes. Yes I am.
I am so sorry.

I'm at the stage where I'm a little afraid to open Instagram. It's been the #DinoConUK social media venue of choice, absolutely exploding there.

Just filmed an entire video essay in a maid outfit because I'm responding to a fellow paleontologist... who cosplays...

look, this is fascism. it's also a death cult.

never vote for a republican or a democrat who plays nice with republicans. they're pushing the country towards suicide.

YO a new Lower Jurassic plesiosaur just dropped and check out how extraordinarily complete it is! [gosh I wish I could swim with a plesiosaur] 😭https://peerj.com/articles/19665/

“but he was legitimately elected”

yes he was, and he immediately followed it up by committing a lot of crimes and otherwise attempting to destroy our entire system of government and replace it with autocracy

just because people made a mistake doesn’t mean we can’t fix it

So uhhh... yesterday I may have tried pole dancing for the first time... and really loved it... please don't judge me [lol] but I'm definitely going to keep at it...

Realising I'm agnostic after so much of my life dedicated to God has been having an utterly bizarre effect on my brain. Like, I keep questioning if it's even okay to be thinking this because I don't want to turn my back on Jesus. I just think that the ground my faith rested on has slowly collapsed.
