Polar bears are solitary for the most part. Usually, the only time you see cuddling is with mom and cubs. However, this is two males. I've noticed that some males will hang out together while waiting for the ice and this will be a precursor to a sparring bout. #mammals 🌿

It's unusual to see a bloody face on a polar bear this time of year. Our bears are current nearing the end of their over 140 day fast waiting for Hudson Bay to freeze. This bear, however, must have found an unsuspecting seal along the shore. Definitely a bonus. #BearSeason2025 #mammals 🌿

Phyllanthoid branching looks so much like pinnately compound leaves that even botanists can’t help but notice. Case in point: This is Phyllanthus juglandifolius. As the name suggests, the branches look like the leaves of walnut (Juglans spp.). #Phyllanthaceae #TropicalBotany #Botany 🌾🧪🌱

Today’s local fieldwork was colder but older! I think we may have found some 300 yr old beech and sweet gum! Will be going back to this site in the future, some nice oak and Nyssa as well.

Arrowwood viburnum (V. dentatum) and dwarf fothergilla (F. gardenii) in perfect fall color this morning against a red brick wall. While the fothergilla's bright yellow and peach are delicious, today I'm really drawn to the lime greens and magentas in the viburnum. #nativeplants 🌱

Take note: Flowering Dogwood has a new binomial. #missouri #nativeplants
This one is a two-fer: good fall color and fruit! This is flowering dogwood (Benthamidia florida, formerly Cornus florida). In addition to beautiful spring flowers, this small tree has fruit for the birds and outstanding fall color. This native tree is a real winner for small yards. #nativeplants
