There's more to the mad hatterpillar than funky headwear. By wearing the stacked remains of its old head capsules, it confuses predators, giving it more time to escape. 🎩

Presented by @Rolex. A simple branch becomes a fishing rod in the hands of these resourceful chimpanzees. This technique allows them to harvest algae without getting wet.

Unpopular opinion: Storytellers, please hide your lav mics. 🙏
Unless the scene genuinely makes it impossible, I don’t understand why we’ve normalised seeing those tiny mics held in someone’s hand.
The moment I see one, my brain goes: “You’re watching content being made, not a story unfolding.”
The immersion is gone. Now I’m thinking about the microphone instead of the person, the moment, or the story.
I understand the content-creator wave is moving fast, and there’s a tendency to copy what everyone else is doing. But please, save us the cringe.
A microphone should do its job without becoming part of the story; or distracting us from it.
Let’s return to the basics

I had the privilege of capturing King Oyo through my lens. Today, as he is laid to rest, I’m grateful to have preserved these moments.
Rest in peace, Your Majesty. 🕊️

A goodbye no mother, sister or family should ever have to make. Queen Best Kemigisa, Princess Komuntale and Princess Elizabeth Bagaya honour the late King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV | #RIPKingOyo
Still feels unreal 👑 #RIPKingOyo
The body of His Majesty Rukirabasaija Omukama Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV, the Omukama of Tooro, leaves Karuzika Palace for the very last time, as he begins his final journey to the royal burial grounds.
Today, the people of Tooro bid a final farewell to their beloved King, whose reign began at just three years of age and spanned more than three decades.
May his soul rest in eternal peace.

🌳 The loss of #forests threatens the survival of many species & reduces their ability to provide essential services.
Forest landscape restoration can reverse these losses.
