The Art of Fauna just *WON* an Apple Design Award in the Inclusivity category. 🤯

But it is also a finalist for Social Impact. 💚
Two nominations, one win. I still can't believe this. What a year 🥹

Vintage drawing of a Walrus, that looks weirdly hairy, unproportional and has a angry expression on its face A historical drawing of a very thick walrus with a heavy body, but a weirdly long neck, human like eyes and a face that looks ass-like

And this is why the global BHL community does what we do: so others can build on, use, and share 500+ years (63 million pages) of biodiversity knowledge & spectacular #SciArt. Over to you… 📖 🌏 🦆 🌱

In case you've ever wondered how I make those animal drawings for Art of Fauna - I don't! They are actually from the @biodivlibrary.bsky.social!

Autumn Austria Pitch: Second Edition

This is the Kesselfall Klamm, nearby Graz!
Looking up at a canopy of tall trees with autumn leaves in shades of orange and red against a clear blue sky. A waterfall cascades down a rocky cliff surrounded by autumn foliage. Two wooden bridges cross high above, connecting the rocky sides. Selfie of Kathi (right) and me (left) in a forest Two brown cows graze on a sunlit, green hillside with a small wooden shed nearby. The background features a colorful autumn forest and a clear blue sky above.

If you prefer a cozy halloween at home (like I do), then you might want to try out the Halloween update in Art of Fauna. It comes with 10 scary (sounding) animal puzzles! 🎃

And sorry Fabius 🐈‍⬛ for using your cute face for an ad!

What better way to start the Halloween week than with a coffee, a book and an App of the Day feature on the AppStore? 🎃

This time in a *ton* of countries around Europe, the Middle East and Africa! 🫶

I'm excited to share that Art of Fauna is nominated for the Special Jury Prize of the Deutscher Entwicklerpreis! 🥳

Both because of its accessibility and the giving back initiative, where 20% of all proceeds are donated to nature preservation! 🦆

PocketShelf is the App of the Day in Australia and New Zealand! 😱

This is first time one of my apps became App of the Day! (Subwords and Art of Fauna were Game of the Day, so that doesn't count 😜)
