Hi Bluesky, I finally stopped being lazy and switched over to here. If you know me from other social media, then you know what to expect.
If you don't know me, I like to talk about science, water, and share pictures of my natural habitat (lost in the woods).
It's nice to see you all again!

The Christmas market opened on Thursday so naturally we had to go last night and enjoy it. A few glasses of glühwein and I mind the crowds a whole lot less

When it comes to remaining unseen, there are many animals with insanely good camouflage. But fish really take camouflage to every extreme. For this #FishOfTheWeek, let's look at fishes power of invisibility

It decided to snow a bit this morning and we rescued a poor hedgehog that got caught out in it instead of safely hibernating. He was taken to a wildlife rehab where they'll help him to gain some weight and be properly prepared for winter

Today is World Fisheries Day, so for #FishOfTheWeek let's talk about a fisheries issue that is becoming more and more common, reductions in size of fishes due to fishing pressure. This may seem like a small issue but is in fact a major problem for many reasons

It's time for #FishOfTheWeek and today I want to talk about a really cool fish that has become much maligned (not without reason) in North America. That's right, today we're gonna talk about the so-called Frankenfish. The snakehead

Just continuing my record of always living in a town with a river. This one is smaller than others, but still just as pretty

Today we got to see a massive rock structure with Neolithic age tool marks!
The rock structure was so big you almost can't see me in the pics!

Did you know Poland has an accidental desert? This land was cleared in the 13th century for mining, and the underlying geology has since prevented the regrowth of the forest!

This is the most German thing I've seen on this app yet 🤣🤣
The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast'

It's Friday, which means it's time for another #FishOfTheWeek! And today we're actually gonna talk about plankton. When most people think of plankton they think of algae, maybe bacteria. But plankton can be any organism unable to control their own movement in water (or air)

I've never seen Marktstraße so empty at 9:30 in the morning (except on Sundays). The rain really made everyone decide to stay home today

One of the things I'm enjoying most about Germany is the bread. I love that I can walk in and get a delicious loaf of fresh baked bread and pretzels. And it only cost me 2 euros! Americans are getting shafted on food prices
