Small animation I made today, inspired by two little grebes seen swimming at Kemerton Lake in Worcestershire! This was fun to create.

A bananaquit perches on a branch and stares at me aggressively with his massive eyebrows.

Hi everyone! I put together a one minute animation for dyspraxia awareness week, showing how this lesser known neurodiversity impacts people and then a bit about my book to be published in January! I hope people find it useful!

A throwback to 6 days I spent on Skokholm Island this summer whilst writing my thesis. It gave me a lot more time to hang out with the awesome puffin colony there.

Had a great time at Worcester Swan Sanctuary yesterday! This sanctuary was originally created to protect the swans from lead fishing weights, and now contains a large population throughout the year. #birds #birding @worcswt.bsky.social

It was great to lead a workshop for @reservaylt.bsky.social today on the use of animation in conservation messaging, how people can animate themselves and the 12 animation principles. Thank you for having me! :)

Hi Bluesky,

My friends cat has been missing for the past few days. If anyone in the UK could share, that would be great. If any of you see him, please let me know. Let's try and get Rolo home.

Would you attend this puffin wedding?

'You may now kiss the bride!'

Did you know that multiple puffins will often get involved in a pairs beak touching courtship behaviour? This one took part but then stepped back a bit.

This is an Eleanora's Falcon! These incredible continental travellers winter in Madagascar, before returning to breed on the western coast of Morocco.

Did you know that in one location they keep migrating small birds trapped alive in 'larders', ready to eat later?

Just to let everyone know, Operation Wallacea is hosting some webinars on the 10th to talk more about the expeditions and field courses they host, that can help provide experience in zoology, marine biology, botany and ecology!

Sadly, it appears they are not yet on this app, but do check them out!

Did you know, in west Africa there is a genus of giant sea snails called Cymbiums? They bury themselves in the sand and are so big they don't fit inside their shell.

So, I have been doing a photography project, documenting the street #cats of Morocco, to create a photobook.

I have an Instagram account dedicated to the project, called Streetcats_world but it hasn't been getting much traction.

With uni, I don't have time to be posting a lot right now 🥲
