So I tried my hand on making this cute weevil that Jen photographed.

My first attempt at #Invert art and I think I opted for a style way above my pay grade 🤣
(maybe the medium too)

Validate me bsky! so I keep trying and improve. Thanks❣️

few quick edits of some of the birds I saw where we are staying. I'd say I heard over a dozen, saw close to 20 odd, but managed to photograph well maybe a handful.

2 Indian rollers perched on branch of a tree, the birds have setting sunlight reflecting on their neck giving it a warmer brown shade, the wings are blue. a very small bird, most likely a grey breasted prinia, perched on a thin branch, Most likely a white rumped shama (As per iNat) with a dark black head and chest and orange belly and tail feather. a white throated kingfisher sitting on a concrete slab. the bird has a large red beak, brown body with a white throat and chest.

A thread of Starter packs for #IndiaSky

There will definitely be cross overs.

ps: you might want to use lists, and here's a tool that converts SP to List : nws-bot.us/bskyStarterP...

(there are few more tools there to combine lists too)

pps link me to your SP do I can add it to the thread too

adding to - sometimes it is really hard to find the right angle to click a spood, as they might just run from one end of the web to the other! so even harder to ID by a noob. XD

but remember the ABC - Always Be Clicking 😅

Possible ID: Feather Legged Spider
a spider stretched out - taken from the side -- its body is mostly white to light brown and lots of black spots/stripes. the same spider, attempted to take from the front, partial pattern on the lower body is visible - black droplets in whit kind of pattern. this was hard to focus.

you see a grey butterfly sitting on a leaf - with its wings completely extended out. on the wing you can see few black lines, and lots of dots some of them with multiple concentric circles of white/black/red. there are lots of branches and green leaf around it. a small yellow butterfly sitting a top a yellow flower. there are small leaves on the side of the flower. the butterfly has mainly yellow wing with some black spots on them. you can see the upperside of the right wing (partially) - which is of a darker black color.

All these global climate crisis and we still don't have snow storms in Mumbai. Might as well stop and try to go back to normal.

Looking through the wilderness
Thinking about the silence, away from the city
And being surrounded by tall trees all around.

Pretty sure this one has not been documented in the area/vicinity I found it... It was a few millimeter in size, and definitely a Jumping Spider (but #iNat suggests much bigger ones in the vicinity)

Look at this gorgeous Wandering Glider #DragonFly

Managed to get a decently good close up of it!

a dragon fly sitting on a branch, you can see it holding it with its tiny legs. the patterns of the wing is visible. the dragon fly is brownish in shade with black markings on the under side, another photo taken at maximum magnification my lens would allow.

this is also a #TwoForOne as you see a snail below it, and snail eggs above it.
a 5 pointed star fish in the intertidal zone. next to snail eggs (the bubble wrap texture) giving it a halo of sorts.

Valence

cc @renahlee.com

#Horror #ShortStory
Within the cavernous belly of the defunct power plant, Dr. Evelyn Kessler stood before the control panel. Dust motes danced in the shaft of her flashlight, illuminating a scene of decay. The air, heavy with the metallic tang of rust, held a different kind of weight too - the weight of a forgotten dream. Her eyes, once bright with scientific curiosity, were now haunted—etched with the knowledge that could unravel the world. The valence reactor, a relic from a forgotten era, hummed ominously. Its core pulsed with energy, each electron transition felt less controlled and more like a heartbeat on the verge of arrhythmia. Dr. Kessler had discovered the truth—the reason behind inexplicable meltdowns, the whispers of malevolence that echoed through the corridors. Her trembling fingers trailed across the equations scrawled on the grimy chalkboard, desperately connecting the dots that stretched across space and time. The valence transitions weren’t mere physics; they were conduits for something ancient and hungry. With every tiny leap, an unseen force stirred—a malefic presence that fed on fear, anger, and despair. The Chernobyl disaster—the world had blamed it on human error, but Dr. Kessler knew better, now. The reactor’s valence cascade had torn a rift, allowing the malevolence to seep through. The technicians, unsuspecting, had become vessels for its wrath. The screams of the dying that echoed in her nightmares. Now, in this forsaken place, she sought answers. The control rods trembled as she adjusted them, trying to stabilize the reactor. But the malevolence resisted—a sentient force that defied containment. It whispered promises of forbidden knowledge, of dominion over reality itself. Dr. Kessler’s colleagues had vanished one by one. Their eyes glazed, mouths spouting gibberish—the malevolence claimed them. She had glimpsed its form—an eldritch geometry that twisted sanity. It hungered for release, and the valence transitions were its gateway. As midnight approached, the reactor’s glow intensified. Dr. Kessler hesitated. She could shut it down, seal the rift forever. But the malevolence whispered in her mind, promising answers to questions she hadn’t dared ask. The world’s suffering, the weight of existence—could she bear it alone? She stepped closer, her breath ragged. The valence cascade surged, and the room quaked. Shadows writhed, coalescing into tendrils that reached for her. The equations burned in her vision—the key to understanding, the price of damnation. And then, with a scream that echoed through time, Dr. Kessler plunged her hand into the reactor core. The malevolence surged, engulfing her. She glimpsed other worlds—twisted, broken—where civilizations crumbled under its influence. It hungered for chaos, entropy, oblivion. The reactor exploded, a blinding flash that consumed everything. Dr. Kessler became one with the malevolence, her consciousness fracturing across dimensions. She whispered secrets to the void, her voice carried on cosmic winds. The world mourned the loss of the brilliant scientist. They blamed it on a reactor malfunction, never suspecting the eldritch truth. But sometimes, in the dead of night, a flicker of malevolence stirs—a reminder that evil isn’t always born of human hearts.
