Forget your stresses in the quiet, swampy woods of Florida 😌

@NicoSGonzalez @timtakestime His majesty 😎👑

Just look at this little warbling nugget 🥹 (pardon the poor digiscope)

Yesterday in the Red River Gorge of KY I saw one of my nemesis birds, this lovely Swainson's warbler who posed, sang, and was eventually photobombed by a rather dashing hooded warbler! I didn't realize how similar these two songs were as Swainson's are very rare where I live.

Baby ambush bug hanging with a friend!!

Summer is in full swing, which means firefly season is here! #DYK that there are 2,000+ species of fireflies worldwide? Most communicate with patterns of flashing light: These signals are used to find mates, deceive other firefly species, and avoid predators.

A Clowning of Puffins! 😀😍🐦

@itsafronomics I knew it would be gross but Y I K E S: "[Disadvantaged students] develop relationships with socially advantaged peers and pick up on valuable cultural cues." Please, no, don't make me take cultural cues from Chad, third generation Yalie and human embodiment of a boatshoe

One of the greatest ball players of my generation and a true inspiration athletically, socially and personally for so many. Throughout her career, Pinoe has been a force on the field and a voice for women and queer people. Cannot wait to see the good she goes on to do next ❤️

So how DID it become so expensive to go to college in America? How did a degree go from being a few-thousand dollar commitment you could pay off with a part-time job on days you didn't have class, to something you need to take out tens of thousands of dollars for? Well...

Karma is a (meer)kat! 🎶 Sound to hear the meerkats little noises!

One time I accidentally used $0.63 more than my allocated $320 in supply money and they took it out of my teacher paycheck

Fire danger is abnormally high this holiday weekend. URGING you to consider firework alternatives: - screaming “bang! boom!” at the sky - dropping a stack of large books on the floor - wrapping a toga around a candle - play America the Beautiful while combining Coke and Mentos

I've seen a lot of cool nature this month, but here's something I'd never heard of and learned about last Tuesday while out on a local lake--long-jawed orbweaver spiders conquer our FL freshwater shorelines this time of year. Check out these massive colonial webs! Alachua Co, FL

I was thrilled to see this rare inland Yellow crowned night heron last night at Sweetwater Wetlands Park! I love this goofy dude 🥹 Alachua County, Florida

Happy #FemaleBirdDay! How many of these birds would you recognize without the names? Thank you to the Galbatrosses for starting this event. Here's more about it: femalebirdday.wordpress.com You can get this poster here: topatoco.com/collections/ro…

Flaco was enjoying some lovely sunshine early this morning in Central Park. Then the Blue Jays found him and launched an aerial assault! So much for sleeping in on Saturday, Flaco!🦉❤️🦉#birdcpp #Flaco

When you're trying to nap in the sun but you have an annoying neighbor. 😂

The vulnerable shouldn’t be in this alone. We should care about each other’s safety. And I truly believe most people do care, but we need to make it easy to do the right thing. I think this simple slogan would be really effective at changing the social etiquette around masking.
