🧪A fun bluesci-y throwback: deep-sea research off the CA coast w/ MBARI, R/V Western Flyer, and ROV Doc Ricketts. Benthic ecology, deep-sea coral transplantation, observations of particle flow using fluorescent dye, & more! Photos mostly from ~850m, but the ROV hit 3,000+ m during this expedition!🪸

Good morning bluesky ☀️ Please enjoy this black-backed jackal that gave me the stare-down in Tarangire National Park, Tanzania.

Another day, another Anna’s hummingbird shot! I’m so going to miss evenings on my balcony in the PNW watching/photographing these beauties.

Brandts cormorants are the definition of brilliant blue

🧪A lil crab photographed while exploring the tidepools of Point Lobos SNR in California a while back! Possibly Pachygrapsus crassipes, but carcinology folks please tap in (my tidepooling ID skills need work). Love the abalone-y vibes of that colorful underside 🎨🦀

🧪Bluesci friends, I finish the day with some very serious and scientific business: three cheetahs taking a synchronized poop in Maasai Mara, Kenya. Friends that 💩 together, stay together ❤️

The What's Science feed is a balm
