Anyway, today is World Migratory Bird Day, so I invite you to spend a minute contemplating those extraordinary journeys, perhaps by looking at the European Migration Atlas. migrationatlas.org

Bird Migration Atlas

This online Migration Atlas covers the huge geographical area represented by two continents, encompassing the flyways between Eurasia and Africa. Movements in time and space of 300 bird species are ma...

Ja til begge i Vesterålen, forsåvidt, men rømmegraut serveres aldri aleine, alltid med risengrynsgraut nederst i fatet!

Har du en tiarma blekksprut du vil sende en hilsen til i anledning Den internasjonale tiarmablekksprutdagen?

Halloise, det er den internasjonale dagen for TIARMA blekkspruter. Her har vi en som helst vil unngå alt maset, hjertelig til lykke likevel!

Toppen av en mørkerød stuttblekksprut (Sepiolidae?) som er i ferd med å grave seg ned i bløtt havbunnssediment i Hjeltefjorden. Vi ser nesten bare øyekulene med lysende øyne. To røde laserprikker markerer 10 cm avstand, så blekkspruten er sikkert omtrent 5 cm lang.

Kurtiella pedroana often attaches to sand crabs, living commensally. But in rare cases, they transition to parasitic lifestyle, living in the gills, egg mass or even *in the tissue* of the crab! Researchers think they're potentially in the early evolutionary stages of becoming parasites! (294)

views of little Kurtiella clams living in the gill compartment, among the eggs and even in the flesh of sand crabs. they are only around 3 mm long

In celebration of World Octopus Day, we wanted to revisit one of our favorite cephalopod sightings, the glass octopus — Vitreledonella richardi filmed during a month-long #PhoenixIslandsCoral expedition in 2021.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue looks curiously at a pie which Green has placed on a plate on the table, while Green looks at him with joy and pride.
Green: I have made a sidequest pie!

Blue listens patiently as Green goes on.
Green: Flour from the mill we visited once, mushrooms that we gathered with your mom, homegrown parsley and basil... Almost all ingredients were things we've made or gathered on adventures!

Both foxes turn back to look at the pie.
Blue: How does it taste?
Green: Bad.

It’s World Octopus Day. There were 4,200 Lego octopuses inside the shipping container that fell off the Tokio Express back in 1997. We found our first Lego octopus soon afterwards but didn’t discover another for 18 years. #WorldOctopusDay #oceanplastic

(så lavt jeg kan for å spare folk googling men likevel ikke framstå som så jævla belærende: Tautonym er når en art har samme ordet to ganger i det latinske navnet, sånn som tranen og padda og svartrotta har*)

*noen liker kanskje å google litt likevel
