So much more pleasant than stressed, spooked, or (heaven forbid) blinded-by-a-flash owls

This is not a drill, a mummified sabretooth cat has been published from the #Pleistocene permafrost of Russia. It's a Homotherium cub! The team (Lopatin et al.) reckon it's Homotherium latidens. It's too young to have enlarged upper canines. Paper is OA ... www.nature.com/articles/s41... cont...

A large deer with a medium sized set of antlers looks towards the camera balefully.
This gentleman hangs out in my yard regularly so we’re getting quite used to each other. Although today he pooped in the middle of the path to my back door & now it smells like a barnyard. Hopefully that’s not a commentary on me as a person. 😬

Wood Duck drake portrait on pond
Okay… this is the first male wood duck solo portrait I’ve taken
I manage to sneak up on about 20 over a short bridge and their slow movements showed they barely noticed me there
My favorite detail are the iridescent feathers on his back that seems to frame the face in starburst
What’s yours? 📷🌿🪶
A striking water bird glides on the surface of a calm body of water. The bird has a bold black and white pattern, with a large, rounded crest on its head that forms a dramatic contrast between black and white. Its body is mostly dark, with a rich chestnut-brown section on its sides. The bird's piercing, bright yellow eyes stand out against its black head. Thin white stripes adorn its black wings. The water around the bird reflects its vibrant colors, creating ripples that mirror its distinctive appearance.

Zoom! Zoom! Two velociraptorine Dromaeosaurs: Linheraptor and Adasaurus.
There were a lot of velociraptorines which proliferated during the Late Cretaceous. These two are for my licensing library and I have added them to the size chart

A small brown praying mantis in my hand. The mantis and the palm of my hand are dimly lit while the surroundings are dark, with leaves in the background.

A radio that combines the design language of old American muscle cars and the spacerace. The top is forest green with tailfins, the bottom is ivory white, and the front is shining silver, on a silver stand. Up top we find a single antenna, a red power/volume dial, and you turn the 'intake" of the rocket to change the stations (the tuning display is immediately behind the engine, incoporated into the body).
