Artist. I am curious about a lot of stuff. Prefer the rest of nature to humans. Hoping my other half doesn't read that last bit. Geology, marine, inverts, 👍💚

#StoptheGrind #BoycottFaroes Just days ago they were beautiful, full of life, leaping & playing, caring for each other, suckling young. Now, senselessly slaughtered, dumped and rotting. Spread the word: Never Visit The Faroe Islands. Evil lives there.

A vote may be brought to Parliament on banning MP's from being paid to do TV work. RT if it needs to happen now It would cost Nigel Farage £1m a year.

I'm sitting here thinking "how many house mice are equivalent to an infestation?", and I bet they are hanging out in the wall/ceiling spaces thinking "how many house humans equate to a plague". Both of us like peanut butter though; good to have common ground.

I showed a cuttlefish his own reflection today using a mirror. After staring at himself for 16 mins, he ejaculated. I scooped up the cluster of spermatophores, and genotyped him. I love my job(?) 👩🏻‍🔬

"Geologists are very pleasant companions, especially for geologists. It’s their art, to stop at every stone, and carry out an investigation at every layer of Earth"🔎🪨 from the “La vallèe de Trient” by the Swiss author Rodolphe Toepffer (1799-1846)

At the request of Johann Doorley, a thread on the ferns living in my place, and some (layperson's) pointers on how to identify them. 1. First up is polypody ('many-footed') fern, which mostly grows as an epiphyte, and is very heavily associated with temperate rainforest.

😳 Tiny bit excited passing through Exeter train station on our way back home… Did you know that National Parks in Britain aren’t actually owned by the nation? 🤯 For more myth-busting, read my new book The Lie of the Land 📚

The big blues are back! 3 Clifden Nonpareil this morning to light in the same Poplar stand Mark Cubitt and I had them last year. East Lothian. Scottish born and bred? Must be.

Remembering mountain moth trap mornings monitoring migration in the Pyrenees during my PhD with University of Exeter, Cornwall and Karl Wotton The hawkmoths (Conovulus and Death's head here) are some of the most impressive insect migrants. The death's heads even squeak and smell of honey!

“UK to appoint nature envoy for first time” This is great news - and it means that the UK really needs to act to protect more land for nature pronto, to have credibility in international nature negotiations! ⁦David Lammy⁩ ⁦Steve Reed MP⁩ theguardian.com/environment/20…

So Huw Edwards gets a suspended sentence for buying and making pornographic images of children, while peaceful environmental defenders seeking to prevent social catastrophe get 3, 4 and 5 years. Some justice, this.
