This sea slug, which looks like a leaf, can go without eating for nine months, because it can photosynthesize just like a plant while basking in the sun! It steals the chloroplasts from marine algae, tucks them under the skin and uses them to make food! nationalgeographic.com/animals/2018/0…

Enormous xylophone in the woods of Kyushu, Japan plays a Bach tune when a wooden ball rolls down each "key." An impressive piece of engineering.

As a child in the early 80s, I was lucky enough to spend a summer in Australia where I became obsessed with the idea there might be #thylacine still wild somewhere. Nearly forty years later, I was resigned to it being only wishful thinking. Until now. Please be real!

Who’d have thought Jeremy Clarkson would produce the best tv series about farming to date? A few episodes in and my farm-obsessed 9year old now realises just how difficult farming is (despite watching his grandparents’ struggle all his life)

Asked to present findings of a shelf life experiment on a zoom conference this evening, only to be told there isn’t time for my bit. Glad I didn’t prepare anything 😂

It took me nearly two years, but last month I caught up to episode 157 of the History of English Podcast. It’s been a very long month waiting for 158 but it’s just come through and I couldn’t be more excited

England soundly beaten in the ODI again. Just a thought: did any of the England team play any one day cricket this summer?

It's only happened for a 3rd time... Now our U12s are League champions as well. What a fantastic effort from this newly formed team. Champions and a Cup final to come. Well done to everyone involved.. #Champions Grassroots Huntingdonshire FA The FA

Fun visit to Cambs Cricket Barn with two twelve-year-olds this afternoon. Brilliant set up and the boys loved it (although there were some pretty dodgy shot selections made)
