I got to see bird research UP CLOSE!!!
It was a pleasure to spend the morning with the @oommbo staff and volunteers, who showed us the ropes of bird research. Here’s what I learned:
ALT A hand is holding a purple finch (small red bird). The bird is resting on their index finger.

FYI Charlotte the stingray is not pregnant with shark rays (unfortunately impossible) but she is also not pregnant with clones of herself (also impossible) it's much weirder than that.

Snow falling in Vancouver is a nice time to remind you that CURB CUTS are an accessibility feature. Plowing snow on the streets / shovelling sidewalks and letting it build up at the corners makes it harder to get around.

Science communication is treated like DEI (no funding, not respected by the boys’ club) and it’s a hugeeeee mistake we will all regret in 20 years.

Please don’t throw away your mascara wands. Instead, clean with dawn soap, place them in a ziploc bag and mail them to a Wildlife Refuge accepting donations. They can be used to clean away oil, larvae, fly eggs, mites, mud and other contaminants from wildlife.

That time photographer Scott Taylor caught an 'angry bird' in real life.
His camera captured a moment in which a cardinal’s wings were tucked tightly into its body, making the bird look like a fluffy red ball floating in midair.
