We Mica and Jasper inherited the profile from Ornella🌈 and Simba 🌈 who adopted two geologists. We are proud hedgewatchers & love geology. Opinions are our own. Typos and misspellings are by our humans.

Today: during #hedgewatch on #Fuerteventura we found this #granite that was greeting us with a #heart made of #feldspar - interior & rim are feldspar. The other #mineral's are #quartz & #mica.
We wish a wonderful Sunday

Yesterday's #hedgewatch included a sand #beach. In the video you see #sand transported by the #wind . Some particles roll & some jump. The latter mechanism is called saltation in #geology Its also pawt of #dune formation in the #desert

Today we visited during #hedgewatch a #saline 😻 A place where humans use the #sun to evaporate #seawater & to harvest #salt or in more detail #tablesalt #NaCl. Many other types of salts exist so you need to be careful to harvest the correct one

Today: we figured out that the humans go on a longer #hedgewatch 🙀 We hope that they can show some nice #geology pictures and can use the # #GeologyWithCats 😻 a little more often 😻 Maybe they can also see a #volcano 🙀

Layoff notices at JPL are going out today.
About 11% of the Lab, or 550 people, are being let go.
I'm thinking of my friends and colleagues there, some of whom will still be employed after today and some of whom won't.
I'm sorry you're having to deal with this.
