Terrific piece on a project I'm lucky enough to work on with @Carremojo and others. Big thanks to @SeaGrant for funding and @WHOISeaGrant and Simonne Dodge for the lovely write-up!

Further notice. Pretty good takeoffs, too - solid B range.

Fledgling swallows waiting for a meal just outside my window @WHOI. If you need something from me, I'm afraid that I am otherwise committed until further notice.

Please pass along this FREE and VIRTUAL opportunity to anyone who might be interested in learning about grad school and the application process!

OMG! Its a dish full of multi-COLOR CUTE LITTLE SCALLOPS!! ZOOP ZOOP! #molluscmonday #molluskmonday #kawaii

A greenhouse farmer near Zoetermeer chalked the glass of his greenhouses, only to find these mysterious markings the next morning. Mesmerising, as always, the artwork that land #snails create with their radular teeth.

@dan_eling got me a birdfeeder with built-in surveillance. Enjoying this lovely gray catbird who is carefully picking out only the mealworms like they're the marshmallows in Lucky Charms.

@jaylu87 Seriously?! What a traveler! I guess it would be even weirder if there were two bears in our neck of the woods.

@CTepolt That might be our bear! We had a black bear around here a few days ago 🐻🥰

There is a black bear wandering around my town and the local Facebook page is lighting up with photos. I am really wishing I'd been able to work from home today, this is 100% going to be the biggest excitement in town for at least the year.

Update: the bear swam from our side of town to the other, so even though I'm WFH tomorrow I may have missed my window.
