Owlfly! Owlfly! Owlfly! 🤎 We've finally been getting regular rain recently, and no surprise I'm seeing more of my silly friends.

I post cool things that I find in the forest. 🌳 Unreliable identifier of mushrooms, plants and insects. Photos by me. Posting from the Netherlands. She/her.
@mirandakeeling.com A man who appears to be of sound mind and not inebriated, steadies himself in the metro by leaning his face, and in particular his lips, against a pole.
One tree had a bunch of these enormous Pseudosphinx tetrio caterpillars on it. They are super large!
Coral slime, yellow variety. Ceratiomyxa fruticulosa. #slimemould #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends
Couple of brimstone butterflies on ragwort. Gonepteryx rhamni. #butterflies #insects #naturephotography
@chrisgpackham.bsky.social Fox fox fox fox fox fox fox fox of the day?
Does anyone know what this fungus is? It's hit a patch of violets and I've never seen anything quite like it. Reverse image lookup hasn't led to any answers so far. #Fungus #GardenMystery
my gf was trying to gas me up and told my 9yo "your dad is one of the smartest people I know" and she deadpanned "you need to meet more people" crushed both of us with 6 words like Hemingway
bought candy at the pool for a 13yo and she tried to give me cash. i was like nahh it's nbd, and she goes "girl i have seen your car." 13yo girls remain undefeated. you think you're talking to a child but you're actually talking to whatever gods used to send to punish mortals for their hubris
I get excited every time I see an assassin bug because 1) they look so cool 2) they have a needle for a face??? 3) implied danger! ooh!
I’ve just realised I have a backlog of spring plankton videos to share! I love this one of a sea gooseberry (Pleurobrachia pileus) as you can really see the ctenes (the combs that give comb jellies their name) working and the iridescent glow bouncing off them. #marineplankton 🦑

Stemonitopsis typhina, recognisable by the slime layer around the stem, I’ve learned from @regularslimeguy.bsky.social. #slimemould #slimemold #myxomycetes #fungifriends
A better look at the hypno-eyes #flies #diptera #naturephotography
I’ve found this beautiful black soldier fly with dark blue wings, and cool Hypnotoad-like eyes. The Netherlands are too northern for it. I found it in a zoo, not as an exhibit, but it probably hitchhiked here with a tropical plant. It’s harmless & uninvasive. #flies #diptera #naturephotography

Stop! Hammer fly time! El Septimo Paraíso, Mindo, Ecuador
It was my third visit to the Krasnoyarsk Pillars National Park. Amidst the dense thickets, we spotted a Siberian sable. The "Pillars" are not merely a tourist attraction but a home to a multitude of species, including rare and protected ones.
I love my Siberian taiga—clean air, white moss, beauty all around! (Shot on my phone)
