Its the poorest year for owls thus year due to lack of food, and I have ringed only a hundred of each of Barn Owls and Kestrels. So a big surprise on the Humber Bank this week to find 6 Barn Owl and 4 Kestrel chicks in the same nestbox ...and with uneaten prey items too!

That conversation between Azune and Julien was MEATY. What do they know that we don't? :)
(CR 4x05 "Branching Paths")

A screenshot style-fan art of Critical Role characters Julien and Azune talking, in a scene from campaign 4 episode 5. They are speaking off to the side in a dimly-lit area in front of a masonry and plaster wall. Both are standing with their arms crossed: Julien's posture and expression are fully defensive and angry, while Azune's is slightly more open but direct. The subtitles/caption, of Azune's dialogue, reads, "So are you just reckless, or do you have a death wish?".

This Megaloceros stag's posing here almost looks like an intentional homage to "The Monarch of the Glen" (1851, Edwin Landseer)
(though not that closely related, similarly majestic)

#PrehistoricPlanet #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge
On the left, a screenshot of the Megaloceros from Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age; on the right, the 1851 painting "The Monarch of the Glen". The images are put together side by side to compare the posing as it is very similar, as if the Megaloceros is posed as a reference to the red deer in the painting, down to their withers and line of their backs and necks lining up

South Island giant moa my beloved

A composite meme: on the left, a screenshot from Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age showing a male and female South Island giant moa; on the left, a screenshot meme from Resident Evil Village showing Heisenberg (who is a normal height) and Dimetrescu (who is 9 feet tall), used frequently as a meme about very tall women

The coffee I make at home is legitimately better and a fraction of the cost. Even a fancy $20 bag lasts like what, a month? Vs that's like 3 drinks from a billion dollar corp that doesn't pay their employees enough. Easiest decision ever.

BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting.

If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.
Starbucks unionized workers say they'll strike on Nov. 13 if coffee giant doesn't finalize contract
Union members say they are ready to strike on the chain's Red Cup Day if Starbucks doesn't finalize a contract with their union by then.

Here’s my boys!

Vance pours his whole heart into being a paladin. He’s also head-over-heels in love in a doomed romance 🌹

Raeshi was haunted by demonic nightmares but a monk helped him manifest them into his Echo. He is currently searching for his father who abandoned him when he was very young 🥺

Drawing of my original character, a young elven man with brown skin and black hair that fades to silver towards the ends. He is glancing over his shoulder at the viewer while framed against a gradient background lit from below with a rich red. The raven wing tattoo on his back is inverted in color and visible through the semi-transparent fabric of his black shirt. A white limbal ring surrounds the pupil of his silver eye.

As part of my PhD dissertation at @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social in 2021, the last chapter was dedicated to a specific pathological pattern in hadrosaurid tails!

happy #fossilfriday and halloween 🎃 in celebration of spooky season, i give to you the phorusrhacids, more popularly (and aptly) known as the terror birds. they were some of the most formidable land predators of the cenozoic, and in my opinion, are vastly underappreciated
