This athletic pooch belongs to the wonderfully lovely Duncan Whitehead.

I don’t know what he’s called, but I’ve named him Sandy Murray.

The Tank at The Art Gallery of NSW
The Tank was constructed in 1942 to contain oil to fuel
Allied ships in the Second World War. This enormous
underground space has been restored and reimagined
as a place to see new and speculative artworks by
leading artists of our times.

It’s NATIONAL AUSTRIA DAY today so I wanted to say many happy returns to all of the Austrians on the page 🇳🇴🥳

This portrait request was submitted by the wonderfully lovely Amanda Ward, and I must say that it’s one of the most unusual donkeys I’ve ever seen.

This excellent sea urchin (with spines at top, without spines below) has modified its spines to reduce moisture loss as it lives in the inter-tidal zone and otherwise risks drying out. Seen at the fabulous Sea Urchin Science Centre and Gallery in Kurrajong, Australia

The most recent evolution of the sand dollar. The fingery bits keep it from being flipped over too easily in the tide.
