WOWZA! Some crazy looking stuff in the fungal co-culture! The fuzz is a morphological change my lab mentor has never seen before, likely due to the new method of adding a parasite cue (via extract) into the media… I’m hoping we get some interesting results from the chemical extraction!

If you’re cold, they’re cold.

Bring them inside 🐟🥶
An Alligator Gar (fish) head sits in snow in front of a University of Minnesota sign. This species doesn’t naturally occur in Minnesota, but it makes for an amusing photo.

I must have hit the wrong button while processing this image as it turned out very blue. Who knows what I did. Maybe I shouldn't have had that cocktail as the Lightroom sliders get a little slippery when I do. But I kinda liked it. #photography #landscapephotography #longexposure #EastCoastKin

For "sketch a fish using a single line" #SundayFishSketch theme assigned by Rene, here's a milkfish / 虱目魚 / sat-ba̍k-hî / Chanos chanos, a relished staple of Taiwanese cuisine and aquaculture. I enjoyed some 虱目魚羹麵 in Tainan the other day! #TaiwanFishes #台灣魚類 #臺灣魚類 🦑🐡🧪

Happy #FungiFriday from this VERY mature Ganoderma Tsugae aka Reishi 🍄‍🟫
Large, dinner-plate size Ganoderma Tsugae mushroom with a deep burgundy red coloring from edge to edge and a glossy surface. It’s emerging on top of a fallen log which is covered in moss. Water from a stream flows beneath

Something for #SundayFishSketch. Everyone seems to enjoy it when I draw eels, so, here's a fire eel! If you want to color it yourself, let me know, I'll send you the lineart and I'd love to see what you do with it. These patterns were pretty relaxing to render.

Digital art of a fire eel, a long fish with a long nose and beautiful, bright orange stripes and dots along its dark blue body. It is surrounded by green underwater plants, on a blue-green background.

The artist side of me has prevailed with the stripy chest feathers, hoorah! Here be an Ornate Hawk Eagle… #BirbFest2025

#Birds #SciArt #ArtChallenge #BirbFest #ArtSky #WildlifeArt #Eagle
An original digital illustration of an Ornate Hawk Eagle perched on a think gnarled branch, all drawn by Loadofolbobbins. It’s perched facing the viewer with wings closed and looking intently off to the left. It has an a small but long crest of black feathers that look a bit quiff like. The top of its head is also black turning to a orangey brown when reach its eye and which continues to the base of the neck. It has two dark brown wings close to it’s body and it’s chest is a wonderful zebra like striped array of black and white feathers extending all the way down its body including the inside of its long tail feathers. The beak has a grey blue sharply pointed down tip then transitions into the classic bright yellow of eagles, the feathers under its beak are white. The background of the illustration is a mixture of dark blue splashing ink marks.
