A Pteranodon longiceps just messing around in the water. This sub-adult’s crest is not yet as large or as brightly coloured as those of more mature individuals.
#SciArt
A digital portrait of Pteranodon - a prehistoric flying reptile, with a distinctive long curved beak and head crest. It is mostly a dark grey/black colour, with yellow flashes on its throat and crest, and a piercing amber eye. It is shown semi-submerged in the spray of a breaking wave, with a stream of water arcing from the tip of its beak.

Spent #FossilFriday tweaking my Anchiornis colour reconstruction. The black+white+red intepretation does entirely match the melanosome data recorded for this species, as there's evidence of phaeomelanin (= rufous hues) on the arm, and lots of grey across the body. #paleoart #sciart #paleontology
Anchiornis, a small blackish, greyish and brownish-red bird-like dinosaur, perches on a twig singing a happy tune. But not a Christmas tune, because the holidays don't start until next week.

A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage.

Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word.

A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

NASA Astronomy Hourly Picture - 2012-12-28: NGC 6188 and NGC 6164
#Astronomy #NASA #Space
Fantastic shapes lurk in clouds of glowing hydrogen gas in NGC 6188, about 4,000 light-years away. The emission nebula is found near the edge of a large molecular cloud unseen at visible wavelengths, in the southern constellation Ara. Massive, young stars of the embedded Ara OB1 association were formed in that region only a few million years ago, sculpting the dark shapes and powering the nebular glow with stellar winds and intense ultraviolet radiation. The recent star formation itself was likely triggered by winds and supernova explosions, from previous generations of massive stars, that swept up and compressed the molecular gas. Joining NGC 6188 on this cosmic canvas is rare emission nebula NGC 6164, also created by one of the region's massive O-type stars. Similar in appearance to many planetary nebulae, NGC 6164's striking, symmetric gaseous shroud and faint halo surround its bright central star at the lower right. The field of view spans about two full Moons, corresponding to 70 light years at the estimated distance of NGC 6188.

#ffxiv #ffxivart
An illustration of a yellow chocobo dressed in Christmas-themed barding against a dark red background. It is happily kweh-ing surrounded by mistletoe and standing on a pile of snow, a basket full of apples hanging from its neck. It is wearing a red and white hat with bells on the side of its head, and is carrying a barrel of mulled wine on its back. On top of it, a round Christmas decoration with a big red bow on it, sided by two bells and ridden on by a small squirrel with a Santa hat. Beside it, a tiny yeti is wearing reindeer horns and is delighted to be holding a teeny gift.

Panel 1 A character looks at their phone, bombarded with scary, sad and bad news. “I can’t tell if I’m in denial or just stubborn.” Panel 2 Character pours themself a steaming cup of coffee. “…but I don’t want to just give up.” Panel 3 Character talks to someone on their laptop using their headphones. “I want to keep doing what I can.” Panel 4 Character sits at their desk drawing on a digital tablet connected to their laptop “So that in the end I can be proud that I did the best I could with whatever time I had left.”
