I was in a meeting where the Dean said, as they’ve said before, “we’re going to have to do more with less” and I replied “or maybe we just do less with less” and the room got really quiet. I think about that sometimes.

Across 100 sites globally, @DroughtNet found that extreme drought cut grassland production much more than might have been suspected. Science Magazine covered the group's first-year results presented at #ESA2022 by @CubanKate! Very relevant today. science.org/content/article/…

Check out this new species (Lamarckdromia beagle) of sponge crab from Albany, Western Australia. Sponge crabs are like hermit crabs, but instead of shells they make a shelter out of living sponges that they trim with their tiny claws! 🦀 doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.512…

Hi y'all! You may follow me for the baby bird science or the bird photos (or the really bad attempts at bird photos) but remember that behind the camera and tweets is a real person.
A person that happens to be a trans, non-binary, queer person. Why does that matter?
