I love that the size of a ground hornbill nestbox is essentially a small shed. #ornithology

Artificial nesting sites (nestboxes) can boost breeding opportunities for the Southern Ground-Hornbill. In South Africa, nestboxes increased the number of breeding groups, revealing their value as a conservation tool where natural nest sites are scarce. doi.org/10.1017/S095... #AfricanOrnithology

Shining Waxcap - Gloioxanthomyces nitidus As far as waxcaps go, this one's quite distinctive due to its slimy stem, gill shape, and depressed caps. This one's somewhere in the common to uncommon range, and occurs in temperate eastern North America.

"Wing Span" 12"x18" Acrylic, conte crayon, colored pencil, paint pen on reclaimed wood Are they spreading their wings to dry, or flicking water off their hands? And also: what's the difference? A slightly different arrangement of particles is all that separates us from our animal kin.

Interesting science - extrapolating age from length is difficult in long-lived fish. I get anxious thinking about legal harvest of fish far older than the U.S. Imagine remembering when Shakespeare wrote Macbeth in the early 1600s. 😬🐟🧪

These Great Lakes fish may live more than 400 years, making them nearly as old as Greenland sharks

Lake sturgeon were already called living fossils, but new research reveals female sturgeon in some populations could survive more than four centuries, upending decades of assumptions.
