A little color to start off the weekend – a vibrant monkey grasshopper, Paramastax sp., from Colombia. They really do look like this - no saturation or vibrance added during processing. #bugsky 🐙🌿

I guess these birds are OK. A bit showy, perhaps.

Can I drag your attention to the artworks by contemporary Czech palaeoartist, Vladimir Rimbala. His works are a perfect mix of modern science and retro composition (🧵)

#Dinovember2025 had Megaraptor in the list but I decided I wanted to do Gigantoraptor instead! After seeing it in a museum recently and it was very impressive!
I went for shaggy ostrich-like feathers on the arms instead of neat and tidy wings like other theropods

One of the funner moments from my South Africa trip occurred when these two little borbs decided to chase each other on the edge a lagoon.
(They're Black Crakes, btw.)

Years ago I went through a phase of putting chicken legs on ... stuff?
Everything I've ever made has always been a bit absurd and self-indulgent.
For example: here is a breakfast radish on legs, which I made of wool and wire.
