Surely we are seeing just the tip of the iceberg here. Abstraction with impunity?

Interesting clouds over Derby this afternoon. Rather like a horse’s mane. Is there a name for this type of cloud?.#clouds

Many thanks for your help Andrew ….… and for pointing out the Turtle Dove which I thought was a small Wood Pigeon!.
Fabulous morning at @wildkenhill with @Stuvigreen, Lead Entomologist with @CitizenZoo - helping to reintroduce the country’s largest (and rarest) grasshopper - the Large Marsh Grasshopper. A fantastic citizen-led project that is a joy to see in action.

Brimstone caterpillar on Alder Buckthorn, in Belper, Derbys. A few adult males were flying about - not sure if they are the same generation or the parents’s generation.

Only apply this awful stuff if your dog actually has fleas and is scratching itself like crazy. Afterwards don’t let it swim in ponds or rivers for the next 3 months.
Our latest research shows spot-on flea treatments on dogs are released into water when dogs swim even 28 days after treatment - in contrast to the label which suggests dogs can safely swim 48 h after treatment.

Worrying news. Even more reason to make our gardens more bee- and pollinator-friendly.
It’s official, 2024 was the worst year for bumblebees since records began🚨. The latest findings from #BeeWalk, our national bumblebee monitoring scheme, have revealed bumblebee numbers declined by almost a quarter (22.5%) across Great Britain💔. Read on:

UK conservation goals are insufficient to save ants and bees, says expert. The “little things that run the planet" are crucial in maintaining healthy ecosystems - they pollinate plants, decompose organic matter & serve as a food source for other animals.

I love the resilience of Christmas roses. Sustained freezing weather and night frosts of -6C … no problem!.Ours have soon recovered and this morning a honeybee receives a meal.

Reunion with 3 (now) professors in this photo from 40 yrs ago! Where did the years go?.So many glowing tributes from fellow researchers, in a wonderful (at times hilarious!) celebration of Roger’s career. The spirit of Charles Darwin lives on!

2/ … it’s a fundamental question in evolutionary biology!.Roger’s research, on a wide range of organisms, has been significant. This includes work on hybrid zones in grasshoppers, done when I was a PhD student at UEA, way back when. 🧵
