Here's a look at the figurines for my Greenhorn Trail Kickstarter :) All physical backers get a set of these resin-printed beauties if the Kickstarter hits the final stretch goal. There's 8 days left and less than 1k to go!!

Recent research from Kyoto University reveals that female dogs actively assess human competence—while male dogs do not. Female dogs clearly prefer approaching humans who successfully complete tasks, such as opening food containers, over those who fail. In contrast, male dogs show no preference and treat both competent and incompetent humans equally. These findings, published in a study titled "Female dogs evaluate levels of competence in humans," indicate that female dogs exhibit a more advanced form of social evaluation, particularly when food or resources are involved. They pay closer attention to human actions and their outcomes, using this information to decide who is the most reliable partner for obtaining rewards. This competence bias suggests female dogs are more sensitive to efficiency and social results than previously thought. For dog owners, it means your female companion isn't just loyal—she's also quietly evaluating your ability to provide. These results highlight an intriguing sex difference in canine social cognition, potentially evolved to enhance females' chances of securing resources and survival.

White-tailed Kite This is the first decent shot I've been able to get of one of these, finally! Here are a few things you might not know about them. 1) They are masters of 'kiting'. They hover motionless in the wind like a kite while hunting prey. 2) They look like a gull but fly like a falcon. Elegant white beauty with pointed wings! 3) Nearly extinct in the US once, now making an epic comeback! #birds #wildlife #naturephotography #raptor #birdsofprey

Was quite hard to get out of the shower this morning. Think I managed to get the water up to about 98°C. I’m parboiled. A fork would go through me very easily.

did you know? a group of albatrosses is referred to as a "conversation." this nomenclature originates from 19th century dutch philologist cornelius pholio and his landmark work, "a comprehensive study of albatross linguistics." though his irreplicable inquiries were quickly forgotten by mainstream science, the work enjoyed a resurgence in the late 20th century as a piece of speculative fiction. but pholio's cultural footprint extends beyond mere trivia night dictionary words... if you've ever golfed, you may be familiar with pholio's influence! the word "albatross," used to refer to a score of three-under on a hole, originates from pholio's "triad theory," which states that all albatross vocabulary assumes a group of three or more conversational participants!
