Spotted in a second hand bookshop in Picton this weekend
🥲🥲 So inspiring
The front cover of a book called Paleo Girl with a photo of three girls holding hands while jumping at the beach. The subtitle says 'Take a Leap. Empower Yourself. Be Awesome.' It's not clear what this book is about.

Hi bsky, I'm Hazel.
I'm a functional morphologist and I love interesting critters, especially mammals. I research extinct marsupials, helped make a cool dinosaur exhibition at Melbourne Museum, and currently manage the vertebrate collections at Te Papa Tongarewa Museum of New Zealand.

Throwing together a last-minute poster for CAVEPS2023 next week, and feeling like a Very Serious Scientist with my Lady Lovely Locks colour scheme.
Cover of a 1980s Lady Lovely Locks video tape. Against a green background of rolling hills and forest, a girl with copious curly blonde hair holds a pink animal and looks up at a dark-haired girl on a yellow dragon. The colours are pastel and cutesy.
